"heavymetal77 " You had responded to me on the P0507 code on the 2000 Lumina. This crazy site says I rejected your solution which I definitely never did. I had sent you a message asking about the Snap-On tool you were talking about to recalibrate the IACV wanting to know if you knew a model # for it and approximately what it would cost to purchase one of those. You have been most helpful, I will be sure to give you an EXCELLENT rating THANKS :-) Stu Thomas

Stu,
Just wanted to let you know that it's going to be really hard to get back in touch with heavymetal77 because there is no way to tell if he is online right now or not and this post goes out to all experts. Your best bet is to probably email [email protected] and tell them you are trying to get in touch with him and they might be able to hook you up. As far as a tool to recalibrate the IAC valve, I've never heard of such a tool, but you can buy a new IAC for $52 from Auto Zone. In the end, unless you plan to use the tool over and over you are probably just as well off to buy the new IAC. Good luck getting a hold of heavymetal77 and let me know if I can help you with anything. Thanks for using FixYa!

Hy is there a code p0507? and how do i fix?

This P0507 code is one that's sometimes triggered on vehicles that have electronic throttle control. That is, they don't have a regular throttle cable from the accelerator pedal to the engine. They rely on sensors and electronics to control the throttle. In this case, the P0507 DTC (diagnostic trouble code) is triggered when the PCM (powertrain control module) detects an engine idle speed that is greater than the desired (pre-programmed) RPM. In the case of GM vehicles (and possibly others) if the idle speed is over 200 rpm higher than expected, this code will be set. A P0507 DTC trouble code may be caused by one or more of the following: A vacuum leak Leaking air intake after the throttle body EGR valve leaking vacuum A faulty positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve Damaged/failed/dirty throttle body Failed EVAP system Failed IAC (idle air controller) or faulty IAC circuit. This DTC is more of an informational code, so if there are any other codes set, diagnose them first. If there are no other codes, inspect the intake air system for air or vacuum leaks and damage. If there are no symptoms other than the DTC itself, just clear the code and see whether it returns. If you have an advanced scan tool that can interact with the car, command the idle higher and lower to see if the engine responds appropriately. Also check the PCV valve to see if it's blocked and needs to be replaced. Check the IAC (idle air controller) if equipped, verify it's operation. If available, try swapping in a new throttle body to see if that fixes the problem. On Nissan Altimas and possibly other vehicles the problem may be fixed by having the dealer perform an idle air relearn procedure, or other relearn procedure

My monte carlo has code p0507 what is it and how can i fix it

possible causes
- Dirty throttle body
- Electric throttle control actuator misadjusted or damaged
- Faulty Electric throttle control actuator
- Intake air leak
- Poor electrical connection to the Intake Air Control (IAC) valve
solution !!!
If there are no intake leaks, clean throttle body, adjust engine idle and erase engine code. If the code comes back you may have to replaced the Electric Throttle Control Actuator (Motor) to repair the problem.

all of the above codes seem to have a common cause, they all list a bad ecm (computer) as being a cause, and the last code P0601 points specifically to a bad computer. sorry for the bad news, hope this helps.
