throttle body software

My Son polo 9n 2002 has failed the MOT for the engine management light being on

its due to the throttle body code ,does it need to be programmed by vag com when you fit the new throttle body

I have VCDS-Lite with lead and can read error codes but not sure if it can programme the new throttle body

Re: air bag light on

Hi All

thanks to everyone that added comment but the garage cleared it when I went to pick the car up and did not charge me

maybe to do with my vag com lite

no lights on now also cleaned the butterfly flap on the throttle body and no error codes came back
