INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:



The following conditions may also cause DTC P0505 to be set:

a. The floor carpet overlapping slightly onto the accelerator pedal, causing the accelerator pedal to be

slightly depressed and therefore the throttle valve position to be slightly open.

b. 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.

1. CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0505)

a. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3,

b. Turn the ignition switch ON.

c. Turn the Techstream ON.

d. Enter the following menus: Powertrain/Engine and ECT/Trouble Codes.

e. Read DTCs.

HINT:

If any DTCs other than P0505 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.

A : Go to next step.

2. CHECK PCV HOSE CONNECTIONS

OK: PCV hose is connected correctly and is not damaged.

NG : REPAIR OR REPLACE PCV HOSE

OK : Go to next step.

3. CHECK AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM

a. Check the air induction system for vacuum leakage.

OK: No leakage from air induction system.

NG : REPAIR OR REPLACE AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM

OK : Go to next step.

4. CHECK THROTTLE VALVE

a. Check the throttle valve condition.

OK: Throttle valve is not contaminated with foreign objects and moves smoothly.

NG : REPLACE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY (See REMOVAL )

OK : REPLACE ECM (See REMOVAL )

DTC P050A COLD START IDLE AIR CONTROL SYSTEM PERFORMANCE

DESCRIPTION

This monitor will run when the engine is started at an engine coolant temperature of-10 to 50°C (14 to 122°F).
The DTC will set after the engine idles for 13 seconds (2 trip detection logic).

The DTC is designed to monitor the idle air control at cold start. When the engine is started at an engine coolant

temperature of lower than 50°C (122°F), the ECM measures the accumulated mass air flow at engine idling. If it
does not reach the specified level within 10 seconds, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction. The MIL is
illuminated and a DTC is set when the malfunction is detected in consecutive driving cycles (2 trip detection
logic).

The ETCS (Electronic Throttle Control System) controls the idle speed. The ETCS operates the throttle actuator
to open and close the throttle valve, and adjusts the intake air amount to achieve the target idle speed.

HINT:

The ISC learning is performed when the engine is warmed up and has been idling for 5 minutes.

NOTE:

When the negative battery terminal is disconnected during inspections or
repairs, the ISC (Idle Speed Control) learning values are cleared. This DTC
cannot be set with the ISC learning values cleared.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:

Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as
freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in
determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the
air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction.
