OBD 2 code PO505 / Check Engine warning light V70-XC70 2000

I have a OBD 2 code reader which when the engine warning light comes on ( every other day ) gives me a PO 505 which in the generic section of the code reader manual gives me: Idle control system malfunktion.

Any Ideas how to repair or what to test?

I subscribe to ALL DATA for this car but their PO code section does not cover code 505?

The car starts and runs well. It does however have a lot of play in the acelerator pedal which cant be adjusted as far as I know since it is a senor and not a cable driven accelerator.

Sincerely Gunnar Wickman, Hawaii

    This MAY be covered under the Emissions warranty. Check with your dealer. The ETS light on my 99 V70T5 came on, which can only mean a failed throttle body or a failed accelrator pedal potentiometer. Even though the car had over 50,000 miles, they replaced the throttle body under the emissions warranty because the car had less than 80,000 miles.
