1994 Infiniti J30FACTORY OEM SERVICE PROCEDURE

System Test

  1. Start engine, and warm to operating temperature. Check Idle speed. If idle speed is excessive, disconnect IACV-AAC valve harness connector, idle speed should drop. If idle speed does not drop, check for battery voltage at IACV-AAC connector terminal "A" (Green/Yellow wire). If battery voltage is present, go to next step. If battery voltage is not present, check fuses and harness for open circuit.
  2. Turn ignition off. Disconnect ECM harness Connector. Check harness continuity between IACV-AAC connector terminal "B" (Blue wire) and ECM (terminal No. 4). Continuity should exist. If continuity does not exist, repair wiring as necessary.
  3. If harness tests okay, test IACV-AAC valve and inspect ECM connector terminal pins.
