Lexus RX (RX 350L, RX450h) 2016-2024 Repair Manual: Idle Control System (P050500)

• The difference between the target engine idle speed and actual engine idle speed exceeds the threshold and the idle control correction value is stuck at the upper or lower limit for 5 seconds or more.
• After driving at a vehicle speed of 10 km/h (6.25 mph) or more, the difference between the target and actual engine idle speed exceeds the threshold 5 times or more during a driving cycle, and then the system determines that the idle control correction value is stuck at the upper or lower limit, or that the idle control correction value has been changed by an amount that exceeds the threshold.

HINT:

14. Check the DTC judgment result.

    Techstream Display	Description
    NORMAL	DTC judgment completed System normal
    ABNORMAL	DTC judgment completed System abnormal
    INCOMPLETE	DTC judgment not completed Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions

    HINT:

    • If the judgment result is NORMAL, the system is normal.
    • If the judgment result is ABNORMAL, the system is malfunctioning.
    • If the judgment result is INCOMPLETE, perform steps [E] through [F].

      The normal judgment procedure is used to complete DTC judgment and also used when clearing permanent DTCs.

    • When clearing the permanent DTCs, do not disconnect the cable from the battery terminal or attempt to clear the DTCs during this procedure, as doing so will clear the universal trip and normal judgment histories.
15. Accelerate the vehicle to 10 km/h (6.25 mph) or more, and then idle the engine for 20 seconds or more [E].

    CAUTION:

    When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

HINT:

• The following conditions may also cause DTC P050500 to be stored:
  1. The floor carpet overlapping slightly onto the accelerator pedal, causing the accelerator pedal to be slightly depressed and therefore the throttle valve position to be slightly open.
  2. The accelerator pedal being not fully released.
• Refer to "Data List / Active Test" [Engine Speed, ISC F/B Torque and ISC F/B Learn Torque].

• Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
