(1) Improper adjustment of the basic idling speed.
(2) Deposits adhering to the ttirottle valve.
(3) Air being taken into the intake manifold due to a gasket leak, etc.
OPERATION
ISC motor position sensor is a variable resistor type,
and is integrated in the
ISC motor system. The slid-
ing pin of
ISC motor position sensor is in contact
with the end of the plunger. Therefore, as the plun- ger moves, the internal resistance of
ISC motor pos-
ition sensor varies. This leads to the variation of the (4) Improper seating of the EGR valve seat.

function of spark plugs, ignition coil, injectors,
compression pressure, etc.)
the plunger position of the
ISC motor system, and
sends the signal to ECM. ECM processes the
ISC
motor position sensor signal, idle signal, coolant
temperature signal, load signal (A/T &
A/C) and ve-
hicle speed signal to control the opening angle of
the throttle valve and revolution speed during
en-
output voltage. ISC motor position sensor detects gine idling.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
Since idling is not controlled when ISC motor posi-
tion sensor is troubled, idling may not be evenly
maintained.

speed, or when a load such as the air conditioning is ap-
plied on the engine.
3. The adjustment, if made, should be made after first con- firming that the spark plugs, the injectors, the idle air con-
trol motor, the compression pressure, etc. are all normal.
