P1000 is from disconnecting the batteries. It will go away after the reset or learn is complete.

P0046 is probably the VGT electrical clip. It could not be connected, broken or shorted wire, or possibly the solenoid. I would bet on a wire or clip/connector problem. Ensure you plugged it back in.

No need to let it idle for more than a few minutes.
