Codes P0518 and P0618

Hi guys,

I've been playing with my new OBD II to USB cable and using ScanMaster ELM software, and I saw two "stored codes."

P0518 - Idle Air Control circuit Intermittent
P0618 - Alternative Fuel control module KAM error.

Now, my idle is sorta messed up, especially when under load (it's the worst in reverse ~ 4-500rpms), so I can understand that. Although I don't want to replace the IACV just yet, as I'm not sure it's at fault.

However, WTF is that second code? Is ScanMaster playing a trick on me?

I searched and found nothing for these codes, and I also tried to input it into Pmohr's trouble code site, but they appearantly don't exist.

Help?

Those codes don't exist, not for an A32 ECU.

I'd suspect something screwy with your code reader.

hmm...yeah, that's what I figured, I just wanted to see if anyone has run into them before, but I guess not.
