On the intake manifold, there is a motor that operates a butterfly plate.within manifold. remove electical connector to it. remove the motor assembly, and see if the plate moves freely in manifold. if it does move ok, make sure the motor is ok. that operates it. it should be on the drivers side of vehicle. if all else fails, replace manifold. good-day! p2017--

SOURCE: crankshaft position sensor

1.Prepare yourself for a job that is to say the least "not fun".
2.In addition to your normal set of tools, you will need a tiny (mechanic's style ignition set) 5 mm wrench. A socket will not fit!
3.Once you've got a lot of stuff out of your and before you're-assemble everything, take a serious look at replacing the following: 2 rad hoses, 1 thermostat bypass hose, 1 thermostat, 3 belts, camshaft sensor, oil filter (as it is in the way & must be removed)
4.90% of this job will be done from the bottom, so put the front end up on axle stands or ramps (preferred as axle stands can get in the way for this job).
5.Disconnect negative battery terminal.
6.Remove upper rad hose.
7.Loosen the four 13 mm crank pulley bolts.
8.Remove all three belts.
9.Remove oil filter and you might as well drain the oil too.
10.Remove crank pulley.
11.Remove upper (1 center nut) and lower (2 side bolts) harmonic balancer shroud.
12.There should be no need to remove the harmonic balancer or crank bolt.
13.The sensor is located behind the harmonic balancer towards the bottom. Observe how the sensor is installed. It is possible to put it in backwards (don't ask). Remove the two 5mm bolts securing the sensor. You may have to put a socket on the crank bolt and turn it clockwise to allow the sensor to clear the vanes that the sensor cradles. Disconnect the two connectors up top. Be careful as old plastic = brittle plastic.
14.Spray some WD40 or equivalent on the electrical connectors for good measure.
15.Snake the sensor and wiring harness into place.
16.Loosely tighten the two 5mm bolts. Have a buddy slowly turn the crank bolt again to ensure the sensor clears the vanes. Think of how a caliper clears a rotor and must sit squarely upon it (thanks Wayne). OR, If you are made of money, in which case you would never be doing this job in the first place, buy Ford's feeler gauge designed specifically for this purpose. I would still double-check the clearances anyway!
17.Final tighten the two 5 mm bolts and check the sensor's clearance on last time.
18.Re-connect the two connectors up top.
19.Re-attach crank pulley. Rotate the pulley until all four holes line up. It is possible to force the pulley on wrong!
20.Put on three belts.
21.Tighten crank pulley bolts.
22.Attach upper rad hose.
23.Replace oil filter and add oil.
24.Attach negative batter terminal.
25.Start 'er up. The ECM will have to re-learn idle!

Check your under hood fuses. There are separate fuses for high and low beams, and sometimes left and right. If this is not the case, then check the connector itself to see if any of the contacts are pulled out or corroded. Beyond that, you will have to consult a reputable mechanic. Best of luck!

Hi, first check for a clogged PCV valve. This can cause your idle air control valve to act up. The pcv valve is shoved in to the valve cover with a hose on it that leads to the intake manifold. If the PCV flow is good, check for vacuum leaks on any hose leading to the intake manifold. Do you have a performance chip installed on this Jeep?

If you getting a voltage reading it won’t be the fuses. It might be worth tracing what wires you can see and check for damage, shorts and loose connections.

P2018 and p2017 are the codes for my 2008 jeep patriot but I'm not sure what the p2018 means, help please.

code p 2017 refers to intake manifold air control actuator position sensor/switch, bank 1 ---circuit high==== causes --wiring short to positive --intake manifold air control actuator position sensor /switch
code p 2018 refers to intake manifold air control actuator position sensor /switch, bank 1--circuit intermittent====causes --wiring---poor connection---intake man. air con. actuator sensor/ switch
almost the same but one is specific for the sensor and the other has options of wiring ,connections etc so before replacing the sensor/switch, I would suggest that the wiring and all connections are checked for corrosion and loose

P2004 and P2017 check engine light on

P2004 The default position of the intake manifold runners is open. They are open when the car is not running. When you start the car, vacuum is applied to the actuators, and they close. Above a certain RPM they open.There are 2 of them. One for the front bank of cylinders, and one for the rear bank of cylinders. with the car OFF, you can try to move each one....and see if it moves.
