CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The PCM controls engine idle speed by adjusting the position of the Idle Air Control (IAC) motor pintle. The IAC is a bi-directional motor driven by two coils. The PCM applies current to the IAC coils in pulses (counts) to extend the IAC pintle into a passage in the throttle body to decrease air flow. The PCM reverses the current to retract the pintle, increasing air flow. This method allows highly accurate control of idle speed and quick response to changes in engine load. If the PCM detects a condition where too high of an idle speed is present and the PCM is unable to adjust idle speed by increasing the IAC counts, DTC P0507 will set.

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
^ No active TP, ECT, MAP, IAT, MAF, CKP, sensor, EVAP, misfire, EGR, VSS, Fuel Trim, injector circuit, DTCs active.
^ Engine coolant temperature is above 70°C (158°F).
^ The engine has been running for at least 2 minutes.
^ System voltage is between 9.0-16.0 volts.
^ Vehicle speed is less than 3 mph.
^ Intake air temperature is above -18°C (0°F).
^ The throttle is closed
^ BARO above 65 kPa.
^ Engine run time is more than 2 minutes.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
^ The IAC valve reads less than 15 counts on the scan tool.
^ Engine speed is more than 100 RPM higher than Desired Idle.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
^ The PCM will illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) during the second consecutive trip in which the diagnostic test has been run and failed.
^ The PCM will store conditions which were present when the DTC set as Freeze Frame and Failure Records data.
^ If the misfire is determined to be catalyst damaging, the PCM will flash the MIL.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
^ The PCM will turn OFF the MIL during the third consecutive trip in which the diagnostic has been run and passed.
^ The History DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles have occurred without a malfunction.
^ The DTC can be cleared by using a scan tool.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
Check for the following conditions:
^ Poor connection at PCM or IAC valve - Inspect harness connectors for the following conditions:
- Backed out terminals
- Improper mating
- Broken locks
- Improperly formed or damaged terminals
- Poor terminal to wire connection

Refer to Testing for Intermittent and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Diagrams.

^ Damaged harness - Inspect the wiring harness for damage. Refer to Wiring Repairs in Diagrams.
^ Restricted air intake system - Check for a possible collapsed air intake duct, restricted air filter element, or foreign objects blocking the air intake system.
^ Throttle body - Check for objects blocking the IAC passage or throttle bore, excessive deposits in the IAC passage, on the IAC pintle, in the throttle bore and on the throttle plate. Large vacuum leak - Check for a condition that causes a large vacuum leak, such as an incorrectly installed or faulty PCV valve or the brake booster hose disconnected. Refer to Crankcase Ventilation System Inspection and Emission Hose Routing Diagram. Testing and Inspection

If the DTC cannot be duplicated and is determined to be intermittent, reviewing the Failure Records can be useful in determining when the DTC was last set. Also refer to Testing for Intermittent and Poor Connections in Diagrams.

TEST DESCRIPTION
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table:
10. This vehicle is equipped with a PCM which utilizes an Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM). When the PCM is being replaced, the new PCM must be programmed.
