I just had the same code along with P0171. It turns out that the 2 short vacuum hoses that connect the solenoids to the intake manifold were cracked. I bought a foot of hose @ Autozone, cut it in half, and replaced the bad ones. The fix was $1.90, and also fixed the P0171 code, so look for leaks!
@@ryanfijalkowski8509 one of my hoses was missing that’s why my p0171 . I went to the LKQ junk yard and found an identical from a random vehicle and bam, FIXED THE P0171
I had a flashing D light on a 97 Honda Accord and got a code to change the intake manifold sensor. It immediately stopped flashing. I was a bit surprised that was the case.
On my 2008 Fusion the sensor on the right side was bad. So for all other people looking for help. Buy one sensor to switch back and forth. FYI you wont be able to tell if it’s fixed till you clear the code and the make sure it stays cleared with a test drive.
@@marcorivero1768 P2004 was the code as I recall. I replaced the left one. The CEL turned on right after clearing the light and turning the car on. Put the old left one back on and proceeded to replace the right side. Cleared the code and ran the car. CEL hasn’t turned back on.
i have a 2001 ford ranger and i cnat find where to hook up one of my hoses. mines a different look all together but yeah. one goes to the intake manifold itself. not sure where the other even goes.
This helped me alot and the install was very easy but I'm still getting the P2004 code after replacing and removing the battery... After I replacement them the engine light went off but after 20 minutes it return ... what could it be after that and do you have a replacement video to tackle that?
If you replaced the solenoids and the code is coming back then the flappers themselves are stuck and it's not a solenoid issue. I don't have a video for that because my flappers weren't stuck.
i changed the manifold , still p2004. i changed the pcv Valve and it actually runs smooth, but still got the p2004. i changed the solenoid i few months back, i never changed the vacuum holes yet.
Are these valves supposed to be closed when the engine is off? I believe one of mine is acting up and I noticed that I can blow air through one of them and the other one I can't.
Probably a “Hard” code. You’ll need to disconnect the battery for about 5-15 minutes to let the modules sleep. If that does not clear it, Autozone I believe will loan scan tools to clear it.
Which one is sceondary hub my diagnostic said bank 2 stuck open .Mercury Milian 2007 4 cyl Which Looks The same as one in the video .Just not sure if its the right or left part one the motor an going to replace all hoses my part looks the same just not sure which one to place
@@CringeComedyTV so I replaced that whole manifold lol and forgot what side one was on lol does it matter where I place them so if the left one was on the right side etc
Hi thanks for the vid. I've been pulling my hairs out trying to get an idle problem solved (idle drops and surges when the car is moving and idling, really gets on your nerves when approaching a traffic light) , replaced a bunch of parts, hoses and sensors, but nothing really worked. Now i am convinced it has to do with the IMRC (intake manifold runner control)/IMTV (intake manifold tuning valve) solenoids. I checked the resistances and both are fine, i checked the position of the levers on the manifold while idling and it seems both solenoids are open. I read somewhere that the IMTV solenoid is typically closed when idling and opens at 3000 rpm. Do you know if that is correct? (i already ordered the part, so ill test this anyway, i'm just curious if the info is valid)
Are both of those control valves the same? Mines got different part numbers and I have to replace them both but wonder if I can just buy 2 of the same and call it a day.
@@tonycervantes4816 if you changed both solenoids than they weren't the issue. The issue is the actual intake manifold runners. You'll need to pull it off and clean them. They can get filled with carbon. They're made of plastic. You can use simple green and then power wash them or brake cleaner.
@@CringeComedyTV i changed my manifold runner and my engine light was off when I disconnected battery and did the process but it came on after? went to my o Reilly’s to see and they said it’s still the manifold & then they said I had to reset my dashboard is that correct?
If battery is disconnected during removal then it should go away immediately or after driving for a half hour or so. If not, you have a separate issue.
Yes. Check for leaks on the vacuum hoses before buying parts. You can often hear the leak. If not, run your hand all around the full length to find any leak, or better yet, pull the hoses and carefully inspect them. as they get brittle from heat and age and develop cracks.
Hey how can I get those tubes that go connected to the intake manifold because mine are really worn off and are ripping off Makes the car shake on a cold start
Go to any auto parts store. Take one of the hoses in to find the closest match--go smaller (inside diameter of the hose), but not larger if they don't have the exact size. Buy 1 foot of hose, cut it in half and install them.
Funkofever whats the one in the right for. My flaps are good I also replaced the pcv valve and the imrc valve on the left and its still giving me the code for bank one any idea why?
@@marcorivero1768 yes I found the fix the problem was not the selenoid it was actually the hoses that come out from the selenoid it wasn't holding the air becuz it had a small crack but I had to buy a vacuum hose pump to fine the fix
Hey, what about if after you change and install a new intake manifold runner piece, the code p2004 still shows up. I check what i saw from the hose and it doesnt look torn or anything but i cant really see the bottom. Is there anything else it might be? The circuit cut short? It has the same error code p2004 and bank 1
@@et1833 sounds like your intake manifold control flappers are stuck. Disconnect your negative battery cable for 15 minutes then reconnect. Drive your car normally. If the codes come back it's probably the flappers (if you replaced the solenoid already).
So I need disconnect of negative terminal While you are changing the two solenoids? Can you wait 15 minutes and then reconnect the battery and delete the p2004 code with the scanner?
Call your local Ford dealer and give them the name of the part you want. They will then give you the part #. You can also call a parts store, or look it up on a parts schematic for your vehicle online.
P2008 means that the intake manifold runner circuit has an open electrical connection bank 1. The ECU tries to control the the angle of the intake manifold runner flappers and when it cannot control this circuit sets a Check Engine Light.

Thank you for supporting our little channel. We appreciate it.
Very good
We did that too my car but the check engine light came back on and we tested it and it still says it's bank 1 what should I do?
What exactly have you done so far?
Are these valves supposed to be closed when the engine is off? I believe one of mine is acting up and I noticed that I can blow air through one of them and the other one I can't.
Yes they should be shut when the motor is off because they're not being used.
Good job thanks
Thanks. Hope it helped.

I changed them both an my engine light still don’t go off but the car do sound better I’m not sure what else to do tho

You need to do a complete drive cycle on the fords. If you disconnect the battery, that is.
