I was told code p1537 for a 2002 ford ranger 2.3 engine is a idel speed control ????????????????????? can u help
P1537 - Intake Manifold Runner Control Stuck Open.
You might want to look at the IMRC valve. It is probably sticking from carbon build up? Use top engine cleaner and clean the air plenum.
Once you have done this clear the codes and go for a ride. About 30 miles should do it. If you have anymore codes it will come back up.

did they plug it in after they fixed it .my dad truck they fixed the wire but did not plug it in afterwards so that meant the did not even test drove it after to see if it worked or anything
SOURCE: I have a '96 Ford Windstar 3.8L & getting OBDII P1537 code.
A common problem on Windstars, there are two IMRC valves, the only way to fix them is replacement, which is not that hard. They are mounted on the end of the intake manifold and control runner length. There is a front and rear one, I'm not sure which one this is but you'll probably have to go to Ford to buy it and they should be able to tell you with the code number. The problem will not affect driveability that much, but if you have emissions testing at your location, this will likely cause it to fail.
