Is there a difference between a throttle body and a idler control module with sensors?

Question:
It's a Honda Civic LX 1997 and on red lights, the speed of the motor fluctuates like it would almost stop. The garage told me code 505 was related to idler control module with sensors and the auto part wants to sell me a throttle body. I don't know much about cars and I am confused ,please help.

Go to the Honda dealer for a second opinion.

If you don't trust what your garage said, go for a second opinion. Yes, there is a difference.

rear right turn signal not working?


First thing to do would be check your air filter. When was the last time you changed it? Is it dirty and not letting air through?

The trottle body is shaped sort of like a carburator and is where fresh air and fuel is injected into the engine manifold. The other item your taliking about is actually called an "Idle Air Control" valve (or can also be referred to as a module I guess). My guess is you went to someplace like Aid Auto Stores or Pep Boys. Try going to a different auto parts store that knows what they are doing.
