THrew My CEL
Just a few minutes ago.
(1995 Eclipse GST 5-Speed)
I was driving from my house to my office. It's about a 45 mile drive, or so. I got off the freeway, and stopped at the bank. I was inside the bank for about 10-15 minutes. When I came back out, everything seemed to be fine. I started my car just fine, and everything seemed okay. I pulled out onto the street, and then came to my first light. My car started to idle between 1500-2000 RPM's. ANd after a second or two, my CEL light came on. No sputtering, nothing. It's not acting up at all. I turned the car off, and back on, thinking it may go off, and it was a mistake...but, none the less, it's still on.
A few days ago, I adjusted my BISS, because I was getting a little idle surge. Once I adjusted it, the car would idle perfectly. I would turn the car on, and it wouldn't surge at all, no bouncing, or hunting. Did I maybe set the idle too high? I have it set between 800-1000 RPM's. Thanks in advance to your help.

Go to autozone or what ever autoparts store near you does a diagnostic scan for free and come back if with the code and I can look it up if they dont tell you what the code means
PS. the factory idle spec is 750

Checked with the OBDII, and it did read a P0505: Idle Control System Malfunction. So, just reset me BISS to 750, and my CEL will go off? Thanks a lot for all of the help!!

RE: THrew My CEL
Hi, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for the help. I adjusted the BISS to 750, and I erased the code, and haven't had a problem since. Again, thanks.
