P1517 - INTAKE MANIFOLD RUNNER CONTROL (IMRC) INPUT ERROR (BANK 2)

Description:  The IMRC system is monitored for failure during continuous or KOEO self-test. Each DTC distinguishes the corresponding failed bank for IMRC actuator assemblies with dual monitor switches. The test fails when the signal on the monitor pin is outside an expected calibrated range.
Possible Causes: 
  • Mechanical concern - bind, seize, damage or obstruction of IMRC hardware.
Diagnostic Aids:  An IMRCM PID reading at closed throttle that is less than VREF may indicate a fault. An IMRCM PID reading near 1 volt or greater with an engine RPM of at least 3, 000 may indicate a fault.
