2UR-FSE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM: SFI SYSTEM: P0505: Idle Control System Malfunction
P0505 - Idle Control System Malfunction
DESCRIPTION
The idle speed is controlled by the Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS). The ETCS is comprised of: 1) one valve type throttle body; 2) the throttle actuator, which operates the throttle valve; 3) the throttle position sensor, which detects the opening angle of the throttle valve; 4) the accelerator pedal position sensor, which detects the accelerator pedal position; and 5) the ECM, which controls the ETCS. Based on the target idle speed, the ECM controls the throttle actuator to provide the proper throttle valve opening angle.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM monitors the idling speed and idling air flow volume to conduct Idle Speed Control (ISC). If the following conditions are met, the ECM determines that the ISC system is malfunctioning, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.
- The learned idling air flow volume remains at the maximum or minimum volume 5 seconds during a driving cycle.
- After driving at a vehicle speed of 6.25 mph (10 km/h) or more, the actual engine idling speed varies from the target idling speed by more than -100 rpm or 150 rpm or more when the A/C and NSW are off, or more than -100 rpm or 200 rpm or more when the A/C or NSW are on, 5 times or more during a driving cycle.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT
- The following conditions may also cause DTC P0505 to be set:
(1) The floor carpet overlapping onto the accelerator pedal, causing the accelerator pedal to be slightly depressed and therefore the throttle valve position to be slightly open.
(2) The accelerator pedal being not fully released.
- Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, 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.
PROCEDURE
1. CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0505)
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the power switch on (IG).
(c) Turn the Techstream ON.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
(e) Read DTCs.
Result
HINT
If any DTCs other than P0505 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.
B -- GO TO DTC CHART SFI System
A -- Continue to next step.
2. CHECK PCV HOSE (HOSE CONNECTIONS)
OK:
PCV hose is connected correctly and is not damaged.
NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE PCV HOSE Removal
OK -- Continue to next step.
3. CHECK AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM
(a) Check the air induction system for vacuum leakage Testing and Inspection.
OK:
No leakage from air induction system.
NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM Removal
OK -- Continue to next step.
4. CHECK THROTTLE BODY (VISUALLY CHECK THROTTLE VALVE)
(a) Check for contamination between the throttle valve and the housing. If necessary, clean the throttle body. And check that the throttle valve moves smoothly.
OK:
Throttle valve is not contaminated with foreign objects and moves smoothly.
NG -- REPLACE THROTTLE BODY Removal
OK -- REPLACE ECM Removal
