Throttle body cleaning

So my dealer recommended that my throttle body needing cleaning due to build up of deposits . They are wanting 200$ for it ! Does anyone have a video or guide on how to DIY ? It’s a 2016 SS with 50k miles .

Wipe it down with throttle body cleaner and move the blade to get behind it. start the car and let it idle for 5min without touching anything

That’s a throttle body cleaning unless they wanted to do a whole topend clean.
