your idle speed is actually not adjustable, it is computer controlled so a low idle means a problem somewhere else- it would be wise to have it checked out. and is it a manual or auto? i know a manual trans probe idles around 750. to get to the barke lights you pop the hatch and there is a panel on top that you pop off and the bulbs should be visible

like i said, i didnt mean to be insulting, i just had to make sure. and one more thing- pop your hood and find your emissions sticker, that always has your idle speed on it, never know-- it might say 500 Ben base 94
