Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
P0507 Idle Air Control System High RPM
060R200057
Circuit Description
The powertrain control module (PCM) controls engine
speed by adjusting the position of the throttle control
valve (DC motor). The throttle motor is a DC motor driven
by one coil. The PCM applies current to the DC motor coil
in position (%) to adjustment the throttle valve into a
passage in the throttle body to air flow. This method
allows highly accurate control of engine 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 throttle position, DTC P0507 will
set, indicating a problem with the idle control system.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
No TPS, VSS, ECT, EGR, MAF, MAP, IAT, low voltage,
fuel system, canister purge, injector control or ignition
control DTCs are set.
Barometric pressure is above 75 kPa.
Canister purge duty cycle is above 10%.
Engine running time is more than 125 seconds.
Vehicle speed is less than 1 mph.
Engine coolant temperature (ECT) is above 50C
(122F).
Ignition voltage is between 9.5 volts and 16.7 volts.
The throttle is closed.
EVAP purge duty cycle is more than 10%.All conditions are met for 10 seconds.
Engine speed is more than 100-200 RPM higher than
desired idle based upon coolant temperature.
Barometric pressure is more than 74.5 kPa.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The PCM will illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL) after the second consecutive trip in which the
fault is detected.
The PCM will store conditions which were present
when the DTC was set as Freeze Frame and in the
Failure Records data.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
The PCM will turn the MIL ªOFFº on the third
consecutive trip cycle during which the diagnostic has
been run and the fault condition is no longer present.
A history DTC P0507 will clear after 40 consecutive
warm-up cycles have occurred without a fault.
DTC P0507 can be cleared by using the Tech 2 ªClear
Infoº function or by disconnecting the PCM battery
feed.
Diagnostic Aids
Check for the following conditions:
Poor connection at PCM or throttle DC motor ± Inspect
harness connectors for backed-out terminals,
improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed or

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0601 PCM Memory
060RY014
Circuit Description
The powertrain control module (PCM) used in this vehicle
utilizes an electrically erasable programmable read-only
memory (EEPROM). The EEPROM contains program
information and the calibrations required for engine,
transmission, and powertrain diagnostics operation.
Unlike the PROM used in past applications, the EEPROM
is not replaceable. When the PCM is replaced or a
calibration update is required, the PCM must be
programmed using a Tech 2. Refer to
On-Vehicle Service
in Powertrain Control Module and Sensors for the
EEPROM programming procedure.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The PCM detects an internal program fault (check sum
error).
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The PCM will illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL) the first time the fault is detected.The PCM will store conditions which were present
when the DTC was set as Freeze Frame and in the
Failure Records data.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
The PCM will turn the MIL ªOFFº on the third
consecutive trip cycle during which the diagnostic has
been run and the fault condition is no longer present.
A history DTC P0601 will clear after 40 consecutive
warm-up cycles have occurred without a fault.
DTC P0601 can be cleared by using the Tech 2 ªClear
Infoº function or by disconnecting the PCM battery
feed.
Diagnostic Aids
DTC P0601 indicates that the contents of the
EEPROM have changed since the PCM was
programmed. The only possible repair is PCM
replacement. Remember to program the replacement
PCM with the correct software and calibration for the
vehicle.
