IAC motor, take off your intake and spray from carb cleaner on the throttle plate. its located on the backside of the tb and the whole for it is right before the throttle plate

25 PO505 25 Idle air control motor circuit Harness and connector / Idle air control motor

(or you can take it off and clean it with carb cleaner, better idea)

yeah, your iac motor is messed up. try recalibrating it so it will close a little and shut your idle back down to the right rpm.

"calibrate it" i have no clue what he's talking about. it might have just gone out for you, CEL 25 is the IAC motor, regardless of if its clean or not, its not functioning properly. either replace it or pull it out and give yourself a throttle body service (clean the tb real good with carb cleaner) same thing happened for me but started with a lumpy idle, i pulled the motor off, hosed the TB with carb cleaner, cleaned the IAC REALLY good, through it back in. wah lah. you can also always replace it.
