Default How do I troubleshoot a P0507 fault code in a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7L?

My 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7L keeps throwing a P0507 fault code. I've replaced the Idle Air Control Valve, but no change. It comes on and then after a while, may go out on its own. Causes? Remedies? Any help would be very much appreciated.

A P0507 DTC trouble code may be caused by one or more of the following:
A vacuum leak
Leaking air intake after the throttle body
EGR valve leaking vacuum
A faulty positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve
Damaged/failed/dirty throttle body
Failed EVAP system
Failed IAC (idle air controller) or faulty IAC circuit
