DTC    P0505    Idle Control System Malfunction

for Preparation Click here


DESCRIPTION

The idle speed is controlled by the Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS).
ETCS is composed of the throttle motor to operate the throttle valve and the throttle position sensor to detect the opening angle of the throttle valve, the accelerator pedal position sensor to detect the accelerator pedal position, the ECM to control the ETCS, and the one valve type throttle body.
The ECM controls the throttle motor to provide the proper throttle valve opening angle for target idle speed.

DTC No.
DTC Detection Condition
Trouble Area
P0505
Idle speed continues to vary greatly from target speed (2 trip detection logic)
  1. ETCS
  2. Air induction system
  3. PCV hose connection
  4. ECM

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

1.CHECK OTHER DTC OUTPUT (BESIDES DTC P0505)

  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  1. Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.

  1. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC.

  1. Read the DTCs.

    		A
    P0505 and other DTCs are output
    		B

    HINT:

REPAIR OR REPLACE PCV HOSE
OK


3.CHECK AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM

  1. Check for vacuum leaks in air induction system.
