System Description
The idle speed ot lhe engine is controlled by the ldle Air Control {lAC) Valve.
The valve changes the amount ot air bypassing into the intake manifold in response to electric current controlled by the
ECM. When the IAC Valve is activated, the valve opens to maintain the proper idle speed.

1 . Atter the engine slarts. the IAC valve opens for a censin time, The amount ot air is increased to raise the idle soeedabout 15O-3OO rom.
2. When the coolant temperature is low, the IAC valve is opened to obtain the proper fast idle speed. The amount ofbypassed air is thus controlled in relation to the engine coolant temperature.

2. lf the above items are normal, substitute a known-good IAC vslv€ and readjust the idle speed (see page 11-95)'
. It the idle speed srill cannot be adjusted to speciJication (and the MIL does not blink code 14) after IAC valve
roplacement, substitute a known-good ECM and recheck. It symptom goes away, replsce the original ECM.
