Idle Air Control Motor
OK, my 2003 Jeep GrandCherokee Limited with 6 cylinders keeps dying on my whenever I stop. I ran the ODBC diagnostic and the code came up as P 0505 which is "Replace Idle Air Control Motor Circuits". What is it exactly? Is it the same as idle air control motor with a valve? or is it just a circuit board with wires and solders? Please advise and any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Idle Air Control Motor
Yes that would be your idle air control motor which opens and closes an air valve. It is mounted on your throttle body.

Re: Idle Air Control Motor
Ok, I replaced that and now the idle runs more smooth than ever. Idle has been rough for the past 3 years....until it decided to die whenever i stop.
Also, the old idle air control motor was covered with black carbon and i made sure to spray throttle body/choke cleaner before putting in new IAC motor. I'm gonna guess all the spark plugs will be covered with carbon and will have to replace all the plugs too.

Re: Idle Air Control Motor
Give those plugs a good inspection. If you do end up replacing also look into the plug wires. Old plug wires will give you a rough idle.
