Module Reprogramming and KAM

Does reprogramming a PCM/ECM clear learned values the PCM/ECM has stored for adaptive systems such as idle, fuel and transmission like resetting KAM does?

FROM WHAT I WAS TOLD YES. THATS WHY THEY SUGGEST A ROADTEST.

Yes, definitely.

Well look at it this way, if you reprogram, it is usually to an updated calibration so anything learned will have to be cleared.

Think of a PCM/TCM/FICM recal like doing a reformat on your computer.

So basically what you are saying is that the base programming is there, but has to re-learn or restore some parameters that was lost on the re-program.
