Idle drops when parking

Post by Stevieh6 »

Hi,
So when I'm parking or doing a 3 point turn my idle drops really low, I've actually had it cut out on me a couple of times.
Is there an option to compensate for the power steering draw in these situations?
Thanks

Idle control valve has been removed and that option is ticked on the ecu calibration

Why was the idle control valve removed?

I don't know. Apparently it's a common mods cause the stock ICV is a bit temperamental

If you don't want it to have the issues you are complaining of, then you need to install an idle controller so that it can compensate as needed.
