ldle Control System
System Description
The idle speed of the engjne is controlled by the ldle Air Control (lAC) Valve'
The valve changes the amount of air bypassing into the intake manifold in response to electric current controlled by the
ECM/PCM. When the lAc valve is activated, the valve opens to maintain the proper idle speed.
YEL/ From PGM'FI
BLK TMAIN RELAY
VARIOUSSENSORS

IAC VALVE
INTAKE MANIFOLD
After the engine starts, the IAC valve opens for a certain time. The amount of air is increased to raise the idle speed
about 150 - 300 rpm.
when the cootant temperature ts row, the lAc valve is opened to obtain the proper fast idle speed The amount o{
bvoassed air is thus controlled in relation to the engine coolant temperature
When the idle speed is out o{ specification and the scan tool does not indicate Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0505
or P1508, check the following items:
. Adjust the idle speed (see page 11-169, 170)
. Air conditioning signal (seepagell-1551
. ALT FR signal (see page 1l-159)
. Starter switch signal (see page 11-16'1)
. A,/T gear position signal (see section 14)
. PSP switch signal (seepagell-162)
. Brake switch signal (see page 11-165)
. Fast idlethermovalve (see page'11 168)
. Hoses and connecttons. IAC valve and its mounting O-rings
lf the above items are normat, suDslitute a known-good IAC valve and readjust the idle speed {see page 11-169, 170)
lf the idle speed still cannot be adjusted to specification (and the scan tool does not indicate DTC P0505 or Pl508)
after IAC valve reolacement, substitute a known-good ECM/PCM and recheck lf symptom goes away' replace the
original ECM/PCM.
