Idle Air Control Valve

  1. If Idle Air Control (IAC) valve is operating improperly, remove IAC valve from throttle body. Inspect IAC valve and throttle body bore for binding and clogged passages. Repair as necessary. If binding or clogged passages are not present, proceed to next step.
  2. Disconnect electrical connector from IAC valve. Using ohmmeter, check resistance across terminals No. 1 and 2 and across terminals No. 3 and 4. See Fig 1 . Replace IAC valve if resistance is not 40-80 ohms.
  3. Using ohmmeter, check continuity across terminals No. 1 and 4 and across terminals No. 2 and 3. Replace IAC valve if continuity exists.
  4. If IAC valve tests okay, check for faulty connections at IAC valve and ECM. If connections are okay, check input devices used by ECM to control IAC valve operation.
