Inspection Procedure

HINT:

• The detection of DTC P0505 may also be caused by: 1) the floor carpet overlapping onto the accelerator pedal, causing the accelerator pedal to be slightly depressed (throttle position to be slightly open); or 2) the accelerator pedal not being fully released.
• Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air/fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction.

1. CHECK OTHER DTC OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0505) 
   1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
   2. Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
   3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain/Engine and ECT/Trouble Codes.
   4. Read the DTCs.

      HINT:

      If any other codes besides P0505 are output, perform troubleshooting for those DTCs first.
