DTC Advanced Diagnostics: P0507
DTC P0507:Idle Control System RPM Higher than Expected

General Description
A target idle speed that meets the engine operating conditions (coolant temperature, A/C ON or OFF, etc.) is stored in the powertrain control module (PCM). The PCM monitors and controls the idle speed so that the actual idle speed is equal to the target idle speed. If the actual idle speed varies beyond a specified value from the target speed over a certain period of time, the PCM detects a malfunction in the idle speed control system and stores a DTC.

Malfunction Threshold
The actual idle speed is 200 rpm greater than the target idle speed for at least 20 seconds.

Possible Cause
NOTE: The causes shown may not be a complete list of all potential problems, and it is possible that there may be other causes.
Throttle body air leak
Intake manifold air leak
Intake air system air leak

Confirmation Procedure
Operating Condition
1.
Start the engine. Hold the engine speed [ENGINE SPEED] at 3,000 rpm without load (CVT in P or N, M/T in neutral) until the radiator fan comes on.
2.
Let the engine idle for at least 20 seconds.
With the HDS
None.

Diagnosis Details
Conditions for setting the DTC
When a malfunction is detected during the first drive cycle, a Pending DTC is stored in the PCM memory. If the malfunction returns in the next (second) drive cycle, the MIL comes on and a Confirmed DTC and the freeze data are stored.

Conditions for clearing the DTC
The MIL is cleared if the malfunction does not return in three consecutive trips in which the diagnostic runs. The MIL, the Pending DTC, the Confirmed DTC, and the freeze data can be cleared with the scan tool Clear command or by disconnecting the 12 volt battery.
