  1. 1) Check For Incorrect Idle Speed

    Go to step  4) if directed here for a part throttle symptom.

    Ensure engine is at normal operating temperature. Start engine and allow to idle for a minimum of one minute. Using vehicle tachometer or scan tool, check idle speed. Access RPM PID and read engine speed. For RPM specifications, see PIN VOLTAGE/PID VALUE CHARTS in appropriate PIN VOLTAGE/PID VALUE CHARTS article. If idle speed is correct, turn ignition switch to OFF position and go to next step. If idle speed is high, ensure throttle arm fully returns and contacts return stop. Repair as necessary and go to step  6). For other idle speed concerns, go to step  7).

  2. 2) Check For Sticking Or Binding Condition

    Manually operate throttle from fully open to fully closed. Check for binding or sticking. If linkage sticks, binds or grabs, go to next step. If linkage does not stick, bind or grab, go to step  4).
  3. CAUTION: DO NOT attempt to clean throttle bore and plate area. Cleaning will damage throttle body assembly.
    NOTE: Sticking or binding condition can be within cables or throttle body assembly.

  4. 3) Isolate Sticking Or Binding Concern
    Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Disconnect accelerator and speed control cables from throttle body. Check operation of throttle body by rotating throttle body linkage. If throttle body linkage moves freely, replace control cables. If throttle body linkage does not move freely, replace throttle body.
  5. 4) Check Functionality Of Throttle Position Sensor

    Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC). Turn ignition switch to ON position. Using scan tool, access TP V PID from PID/DATA MONITOR & RECORD menu. Monitor TP V PID voltage reading while slowly depressing accelerator pedal from closed throttle position to Wide Open Throttle (WOT) position. If TP V PID voltage reading increases smoothly during accelerator movement, go to next step. If TP V PID voltage reading did not increase smoothly during accelerator movement, replace TP sensor.
  6. 5) Check For Air Cleaner Element & Inlet Restrictions

    Check air filter and inlet tube for restrictions. Check for plugging or blockage through air inlet to throttle body. Clean inlet and element or replace element as necessary. If air cleaner element and inlet tube are okay, go to next step.
  7. NOTE: A high idle may indicate incorrect PCV valve size or a vacuum leak.

  8. 6) Check For Positive Crankcase Ventilation Concern
    Check PCV valve connections for leaks or cracks. Remove PCV valve and check for plugged or incorrect valve. Repair as necessary. If PCV valve is okay, go to step  9) (high idle concern), or reinstall PCV valve and go to next step (all others).
  9. 7) Check For IAC Valve Response

    Reconnect PCV valve if disconnected previously. Ensure all accessories are off. Ensure engine is at operating temperature. Start engine and allow to idle for a minimum of one minute. Disconnect IAC solenoid harness connector. If engine idle speed decreases or engine almost stalls, go to next step. If engine idle speed is low and does not change when disconnecting IAC solenoid, replace IAC solenoid. If engine idle speed is high and does not change when disconnecting IAC solenoid, go to step  9).
  10. NOTE: Not all applications are equipped with a throttle plate hole. If not equipped, return to appropriate symptom diagnosis in SYMPTOMS in TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES - CNG, FLEX-FUEL & GASOLINE article.

  11. 8) Inspect Throttle Body Plate Hole For Plugging
    Remove resonator from throttle body assembly. Inspect throttle plate hole for restriction. Repair as necessary. If throttle plate hole is not restricted, return to appropriate symptom diagnosis in SYMPTOMS in TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES - CNG, FLEX-FUEL & GASOLINE article.
  12. 9) Check For Vacuum Leaks

    Start engine and allow to idle. Listen for vacuum leaks. Inspect inlet air system from Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor to intake manifold for cracks, loose connections or faulty gaskets. Inspect intake manifold, EGR gasket and diaphragm, seal to intake manifold and vacuum hoses for leaks. Repair as necessary. If no faults are found, disconnect IAC valve harness connector. If idle speed does not drop, replace IAC valve. If idle speed drops, go to next step.
  13. 10) Check Throttle Body For Excessive Wear

    Turn ignition switch to OFF position. Remove throttle body. See THROTTLE BODY under FUEL SYSTEMS in appropriate REMOVAL & INSTALLATION article. With throttle fully closed, hold throttle body up to light source. Check for excessive gap between throttle bore and plate. Rotate throttle lever to WOT and inspect bore for wear or grooving. If faults are present, replace throttle body. If throttle body is okay, fault cannot be duplicated or identified at this time. Reinstall throttle body and return to appropriate symptom diagnosis in TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES - CNG & GASOLINE article.
    NOTE: A break in step numbering sequence occurs at this point. Procedure skips from step 10) to step 15). No test procedures have been omitted.
  14. NOTE: For additional testing information, see DIAGNOSTIC AIDS .
    WARNING: Be careful when operating IMRC or IMSC by hand. IMRC or IMSC return springs are strong and may cause plates to close suddenly.
    NOTE: Focus 2.0L 2V, Econoline and Pickup 4.2L, and Ranger 2.3L are equipped with electronic actuators. If the following visual inspection is not necessary, go to step  17).

    • IMRC Or IMSC SIG Circuit Shorted To PWR GND Or SIG RTN
    • Faulty IMRC Or IMSC Actuator
    • Faulty Powertrain Control Module (PCM)

    DTC P1519 indicates IMRC or IMSC may be stuck closed. KOEO or Continuous Memory self-test failed when IMRC or IMSC monitor circuit signal exceeded expected calibrated range with IMRC or IMSC activated. Possible causes are:
