DTC Descriptors
DTC P0506
Idle Speed Low
DTC P0507
Idle Speed High
Circuit/System Description
The throttle actuator control (TAC) motor is controlled by the engine control module (ECM). The DC motor
located in the throttle body drives the throttle blade. In order to decrease idle speed, along with spark and fuel
delivery changes the ECM commands the throttle closed reducing air flow into the engine and the idle speed
decreases. In order to increase idle speed, the ECM commands the throttle plate open allowing more air to
pass the throttle plate.
The ECM detects that the actual idle speed is approximately 91 RPM lower than the desired idle speed.

The ECM detects that the actual idle speed is approximately 182 RPM higher than desired idle speed.
Diagnostic Aids
A stalling condition can cause DTC P0506 to set.
An intermittent vehicle speed sensor (VSS) signal can cause DTC P0507 to set.
An intermittent clutch pedal position sensor signal, if equipped, can cause DTC P0506 to set.

3. Verify the scan tool Throttle Body Idle Airflow Compensation parameter is less than 90 %.
⇒ 90 % or greater
Refer to Throttle Body Inspection and Cleaning.
6. Verify the actual Engine Speed is not 200 RPM greater than the Desired Idle Speed.
7. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within
the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
8. Verify the DTC does not set.
9. All OK.
