Default low idle and then stall EK

This may sound really stupid, but yesterday I disconnected my power on my battery then I reconnected it. I drove my car today, and now the idle is really low. It drives fine, but when I come to a stop, it stalls. Is it the OBDII? I am almost positive that this has happened to me before since the OBDII is so touchy. How do I fix this? Has anyone else had these problems on OBDII EK's? Thanks.

drive the car till you get to operating temp. yank the neg bat cable for 10-15 min. reconect it...start car and let idle w/out touching the gas, for aprox 10 min....computer will relearn it's settings..hopefully this will take care of it..if not repost here
