What is the idle air control system code on a Honda CRV?

Honda CR-V P0505: Idle Air Control System- Malfunction. March 19, 2019. P0505 is an OBDII code that deals with the idle air control system in the Honda CR-V. It’s a generic code, which means that it has the same meaning for the CR-V as it would any other vehicle (CR-V or not).

What causes a p0505 problem on a Honda CRV?

When P0505 is triggered, it is typically caused by a stuck idle air control valve, a clogged idle air control valve, or a vacuum leak. There can be other causes as well. Although, they aren’t as prevalent. This particular trouble code lets you know that there is something wrong with the idle air control system, but that’s about it.

What does the idle air control valve do?

The idle air control valve’s primary job is to regulate the idle speed of your engine. It does this by letting in just the right amount of air to get the idle speed where it needs to be. The IAC valve can get either dirty or stuck. You may need a new one, or you may be able to get away with cleaning it.

What causes Honda CRV engine to idle rough?

The heat of the exhaust can also bake the wiring going to/from them over time. If an oxygen sensor goes bad, it can make your CR-V run too lean (or rich). A super lean running engine will often idle rough. The fuel injection systems job is to atomize the fuel into fine mist.

How to troubleshoot the air conditioning in a Honda CRV?

Air conditioning problems are quite common, and might be caused by any number of things. Try to self-diagnose air conditioning problems in your Honda CR-V. Start the engine of your Honda CR-V and allow the engine to warm up before beginning the troubleshooting. Check the coolant levels in the coolant reservoir.

When did my Honda CRV start stalling?

If the vehicle is over 90,000, then it was the owner’s responsibility to ajust the valve lash at 90,000 miles. I am having the same problem with my 2004 HONDA CRV which has 90,000 miles. It has been in and out of the dealership since May 1, 2008.

Why does my Honda CRV not start up?

We thought it was from sitting in the cold without running for a few days (it’s been very cold here), but it still wouldn’t start that afternoon. The clutch feels fine now, and the engine “wants” to turn over, but won’t. I don’t think it’s the battery because the engine makes noise and dash lights and everything come on.

When does a Honda CRV stall and idle?

The car stalls when you are going about 40-50 miles per hour and then drop it in neutral say for a turn, stop, etc. The car stalled on me on a busy intersection, I refuse to drive it until the problem is 100% corrected. I am 7 months pregnant and I can not put a newborn in this car.

What kind of problems does my Honda CRV have?

I have a 1997 honda crv with 195,000 miles on it. The car recently has been giving me problems. When the car is driven for a while and it warms up it stalls. The first time this happened, the car started right back up, however the last three times it happened, the car just cranks. Then when the car cools down it starts.

What happens when you idle a Honda CRV?

If the compressor does stop, then in addition to the battery and starter, that’s yet another component that is getting overly used during the life of the vehicle; thanks. All I can tell you is the air flow slows down and is warmer when Idle Stop is on, most likely as you say, the compressor stops.

Is there a way to disable engine idle stop?

There is no setting to permanently disable it. Actually the AC cycles down when idles kick in – njever completely stops. In addition to more starter motor use my concern is when there is a weak battery.

The 12 V battery (located in the trunk of our previous Camry Hybrids did not start the engine, rather booted up the electronics, and the electric motor generator actually started up the ICE engine. I realize the Hybrid systems vary between the two, just wondering.

Can a Honda CRV engine auto stop with the AC on?

If I recall correctly, with the AC on.. the engine will not auto-stop as long as the climate control senses the need for the AC to be active. So that part takes care of itself. As for wear and tear, yeah.. probably some additional but the real question is… will components ever fail in the normal useful years of a 2020?

What happens when the idle air control valve ( IAC ) fails?

When the idle air control valve (IAC) fails it can cause all sorts of issues; and in some cases may even render it undrivable. Usually, a bad or failing idle air control valve (IAC); will produce a few symptoms that can alert the driver of a potential issue:

What should the resistance be on an IAC valve?

Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between pins 3 and 2 on the (IAC) valve. Resistance should be 10-14 ohms. If resistance is ok, proceed to the next step. Finally, if resistance is out of range, replace the (IAC) and retest. Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between pins 1 and 2 on the (IAC) valve.

What are the symptoms of a bad air control valve?

Usually, a bad or failing idle air control valve (IAC); will produce a few symptoms that can alert the driver of a potential issue: Irregular Idle Speed. So, one of the most common symptoms associated with a problematic idle air control valve (IAC) is irregular idle speed.

How to know if your air control valve is bad?

5 Symptoms of a Bad Idle Air Control Valve (and Replacement Cost) 1 Intermittent Idle Speed. 2 Check Engine Warning Light. 3 Rough Idling. 4 Engine Stalling. 5 Load Causes Stalling.

How can I tell if my idle control valve is working?

To check if an idle control valve is working properly, start by turning on your engine and letting it run for a minute or 2. Then, when it’s at an idling speed, take note of the RPMs in your car. Next, turn the engine off and disconnect the idle control motor under your hood.
