Code p0506 - Cars & Trucks

Link below will tell you the code is a result of the rough running. Use the checklist to find the cause of the rough running and the idle speed should return to normal and the code should disappear.

Common Problems That Trigger the P0506 Code

Defective/sticking Idle Air Control MotorIntake Manifold Vacuum leaks 
Carbon buildup in the Throttle Body air passagesDefective Power Steering Pressure Switch

Common Misdiagnosis

Idle Air Control Motor is replaced when code P0506 was triggered by carbon buildup in the Throttle Body air passages and/or the butterfly valve of the Idle Air Control Motor.

P0506 - Idle Air Control (IAC) System RPM Lower Than Expected

This P0506 code is one that's sometimes triggered on vehicles that have electronic throttle control. That is, they don't have a regular throttle cable from the accelerator pedal to the engine. They rely on sensors and electronics to control the throttle. In this case, the P0506 DTC (diagnostic trouble code) is triggered when the PCM (powertrain control module) detects an engine idle speed that is lower than the desired (pre-programmed) RPM.
Potential Symptoms Most likely the only thing you'll notice is the idle speed is lower than normal so it will likely be rougher. There are potentially other symptoms as well. Of course, when trouble codes are set, the MIL (malfunction indicator lamp, a.k.a. the check engine light) illuminates.
Causes A P0506 DTC trouble code may be caused by one or more of the following:

• A vacuum leak
• An air restriction in the intake air path or exhuast
• A faulty positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve
• Damaged/failed/dirty throttle body
• Internal engine problem
• Failed PCM

Possible Solutions This DTC is more of an informational code, so if there are any other codes set, diagnose them first. If there are no other codes, inspect for vacuum leaks, restrictions, and damage. If there are no symptoms other than the DTC itself, just clear the code and see whether it returns.

Hi:
Here is info on your code:

The first thing to do is clear the code and see if it comes back, and if it does, work your way thru the list of possible causes.

all of the above codes seem to have a common cause, they all list a bad ecm (computer) as being a cause, and the last code P0601 points specifically to a bad computer. sorry for the bad news, hope this helps.
