Idle Speed Inspection

NOTE:

Before checking the idle speed, check these items:

The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) has not been reported on, and there are no DTCs.

Spark plugs

Air cleaner

PCV system

If DTCs are not indicated, the idle speed is normal.

Apply the parking brake.

1.	HDS - Connect

2.	Idle Speed - Inspect

Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (in P or N) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.

Check the idle speed under no load conditions: headlights, blower fan, radiator fan, audio system, and air conditioner off.

Idle speed should be:

1.5 L engine	720 ± 50 rpm (in P or N)
1.5 L engine	975 ± 50 min^-1 (rpm) (in P or N)^*1 (high altitude (BARO sensor in the DATA LIST with the HDS: less than 563 mmHg)
2.4 L engine	720 ± 50 rpm (in P or N)

Let the engine idle for 1 minute with high electric load (A/C on, temperature set to max cool, blower fan on high, headlights on high beam).

Idle speed should be: 720 ± 50 rpm (in P or N)

NOTE: If the idle speed is not within specification, do the PCM idle learn procedure. If the idle speed is still not within specification, go to the symptom troubleshooting.
