IDLE AIR CONTROL (IAC) VALVE
ON−VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSPECT IAC VALVE OPERATION
(a) Initial conditions:
Engine at normal operating temperature
Idle speed check correctly
Transmission in neutral position
(b) Using SST, connect terminals TE1 and E1 of the DLC1.
SST 09843−18020
(c) Maintain engine speed in the range between 900 − 1,300
rpm for 5 seconds. Check that it returns to idle speed.
If the engine speed operation is not as specified, check the IAC
valve, wiring and ECM.
(d) Remove the SST.

2. INSPECT IAC VALVE RESISTANCE
NOTICE:
”Cold” and ”Hot” in these sentences express the tempera-
ture of the coils themselves. ”Cold” is from −10°C (14°F) to
50°C (122°F) and ”Hot” is from 50°C (122°F) to 100°C
(212°F).
(a) Disconnect the IAC valve connector.
(b) Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between ter-
minal +B and other terminals (RSC, RSO).
Resistance:
Cold: 17.0 − 24.5 Ω
Hot: 21.5 − 28.5 Ω
If resistance is not as specified, replace the IAC valve.
(c) Reconnect the IAC valve connector.
