- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the IA valve. Allow up to 2 minutes for the ECM to completely power down.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 5 ohms between the low reference circuit terminal C and ground.
- If greater than 5 ohms, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between 5-volt reference circuit terminal F and ground.
- If less than 4.8 volts, test 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- If greater than 5.2 volts, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Verify the scan tool IAF valve position sensor voltage is less than 0.1 volt.
- If greater than 0.1 volt, test the signal circuit terminal E for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal E and the 5-volt reference circuit terminal F of the IA valve harness connector. Verify that the scan tool IAF position sensor voltage is more than 4.8 volts.
- If less than 4.8 volts, test the IA valve signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the IA valve.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- β’ You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- β’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- β’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- β’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- β’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
