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.
