Alright, my check engine light came on yesterday while I was on the highway. I had it scanned, I was given P1519 - Stuck Closed as a code. I checked it here and its the Intake Manifold Runner Control and thats stuck closed. I am wondering if it mechanical or electrical? And also if its a common problem among Contour owners? Is this a DIY kind of fix, or does this need to go into the garage?

What I found so far, is this:

Can anyone else offer any help/advice?



I believe on 95 it is vacuum operated and on 96-00 cable operated. Your cable may have broken someplace.

That may or may not help you.

I would look for a broken cable.

Dont know if it is a DIY, I dont have a V6 and therefore never had to deal with it.
