Default Electronic Throttle Control and Check Engine Light

Driving home yesterday the check engine light came on so I disconnected the battery and the light went off but then the wrench light appeared. I checked all connections to my BBK Throttle body and BBK CAI even took apart and appears to be fine. Both lights are on and car is locked in idle. Tried turning off then turning back on... any thoughts?
Also if I bring to dealership do these mods with no tune void my warranty?

What DTCs do you have?

Your TB may be dirty or your BBK may need proper calibration. Common issue with those, if you don't get them right.

But the DTCs will help.
