Symptom List:
P0506-IDLE SPEED LOW PERFORMANCE
P0507-IDLE SPEED HIGH PERFORMANCE
Test Note: All symptoms listed above are diagnosed using the same tests.
The title for the tests will be P0506-IDLE SPEED LOW PER-
FORMANCE.
When Monitored and Set Condition:
P0506-IDLE SPEED LOW PERFORMANCE
When Monitored: Engine Running. During an idle condition.
Set Condition: If the engine RPM does not come within a calibratable low limit of the
target idle speed, a failure timer will increment. When the appropriate failure timer
reaches its maximum threshold without sign of RPM trending towards control, a soft fail
is generated. When a calibratable number of the soft fails is reached, a 1 trip fault is set.
When two 1 trip faults occur in a row, the DTC is set and the MIL illuminates.
P0507-IDLE SPEED HIGH PERFORMANCE
When Monitored: Engine Running. During an idle condition.
Set Condition: If the engine RPM does not come within a calibratable high limit of the
target idle speed, a failure timer will increment. When the appropriate failure timer
reaches its maximum threshold without sign of RPM trending towards control, a soft fail
is generated. When a calibratable number of the soft fails is reached, a 1 trip fault is set.
When two 1 trip faults occur in a row, the DTC is set and the MIL illuminates.
POSSIBLE CAUSES
GOOD TRIP EQUAL TO ZERO
PCV SYSTEM
IAC MOTOR PASSAGES
VACUUM LEAKS
AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM
THROTTLE BODY AND THROTTLE LINKAGE
TEST ACTION APPLICABILITY
1 Ignition on, engine not running.
With the DRBIIIt, read DTCs and record the related Freeze Frame data.
Is the Good Trip Counter displayed and equal to zero?
All
Yes → Go To 2
No → Refer to the INTERMITTENT CONDITION symptom in the
Driveability category.
Perform POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST VER-5-NGC.
