Circuit/System Verification
1. Ignition ON, observe the DTC information with a scan tool. Verify there are no other DTCs set.
瀚慖f a DTC is set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle (See: Diagnostic Trouble Code Descriptions/Diagnostic Trouble
Code (DTC) List - Vehicle).
2. Idle the engine at the normal operating temperature. Compare the Desired Idle Speed to the actual Engine Speed with a scan tool. The actual
Engine Speed should not be less than 100 RPM of the Desired Idle Speed or 200 RPM greater than the Desired Idle Speed.
3. Allow the engine to idle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. DTCs P0506 or P0507 should not set.
4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the
conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
Circuit/System Testing
Verify none of the following conditions exist:
P0506
* Excess deposits in the Q38 throttle body. Refer to Throttle Body Inspection and Cleaning (See: Powertrain Management/Fuel Delivery and
Air Induction/Throttle Body/Service and Repair/Procedures).
* Restricted exhaust
* Mechanical conditions that limits engine speed
* Parasitic load on the engine-For example, a transmission condition, a belt driven accessory condition.
瀚慖f a condition is found, repair as necessary.
P0507
* Vacuum leaks
* A throttle valve that does not close correctly
* Verify the correct operation of the crankcase ventilation system. Inspect for the following conditions:
- The routing of the positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) system
- Vacuum leaks in the PCV system-Refer to Crankcase Ventilation System Inspection/Diagnosis (See: Powertrain Management/Emission
Control Systems/Positive Crankcase Ventilation/Testing and Inspection).
