    This is a great video. I've been working on an idle issue on my mercruiser boat engine. Someone explained to e that I should check for power and resistance on my wiring harness at the IAC. I had no idea how to do that until I watched your video. Great attention to detail. The inset camera view as you test for resistance is a great feature! Thanks a bunch!

    Thank you for showing the way to test the IAC. I am going to test mine tomorrow. I was really worried that I was going to have to replace the part and I don't have a lot of cash. SUBSCRIBED!! And please keep the videos coming this one was very informative.

    Would be the same test for a two pin set up. 2001 ford ranger 3.0l I put in a new one and still getting the code and running really bad. I''m thinking it might be a bad ECU. Any thoughts

  • @jakeboynz
    @jakeboynz ปีที่แล้ว

    Great explanation... I followed your last test. When I turn on the ignition I hear the IAC click and if I leave it in the ON position for a few secs without starting the engine, the IAC clicks back to the off position. Is this normal behavior? Thanks Jake

    Thank you for the video. Quick question, I was getting P0505 too and bought a replacement part on Amazon. No more p0505 code but this particular IAC makes noise when the key is set to accessories. It sounds like a little motor is constantly running. Is that normal or should I ask for a replacement?

  • @catseyes11

    Do I need to reset my computer on my 1999 Subaru legacy outback, after I check and clean my IACV? I didn't actually remove it all the way but after reassembling, my car is now acting like my battery isn't working for a minute. It starts but immediately dies. When I try to turn over again, it acts like I have a dead battery but if I wait a second then try again, it starts but not in a strong way. I know my battery is fine because I just got it tested. When my father and I replaced and adjusted my TPS the other day, we followed the recommended computer reset protocol and that got rid of the At Oil Temp and check engine light. It is shifting so smoothly now and all seemed perfect so we decided to see if we could clean the IACV, we were concerned we might screw it up so just shot carb cleaner into it and then put all the hoses and sensors back into place. Seemed to be fine until the next day when I went to start it and experienced it dying and then having issues starting. I've never had an issue with it starting. Wondering if i should've done the computer reset after messing with the IACV too. Or perhaps we didn't put something back correctly? Anyone have any advice here?

    All your testing checked out for me except for the last step at 5:20 on my 95' 3000GT. When I turned the car on several times, the shaft did not move at all. I decided to try it again and the first time I turned it on, it moved ever so slightly but wouldn't move again after I turn it back off and on. Is this an indication this part needs replacing?

    • @CarsNToys
      @CarsNToys  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sounds to me it needs to be replaced.

    • @AgentWK

    Does this work for motorcycles as well? I’ve took my IAC valve of and left it connected..when I turn the key to on position, it doesn’t move at all..
    Side note: I’ve been having problems with my motorcycle not being able to idle for more than 5 seconds..I changed everything but today I decided to check the IAC valve and it doesn’t move on the key on position

  • @mrkzzzzzzzzzzz

    Question regarding a 2002 Nissan Sentra GXE. The resistance check is good and the voltages are good. I have removed the valve to check if it moves when turning the ignition on/off and it does not move. The valve was taken off of a working car. Any suggestions?

    • @CarsNToys
      @CarsNToys  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mirko Miljanovic If the valve doesn't move then you'll need a new IACV.

  • @paulromsky9527
    @paulromsky9527 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video, but I need to go a bit deeper. I want to learn exactly how the IAC steps, they are not simply fully open or fully closed, they can be set to various positions by the ECM to get different idle speeds.
    Yours has two sets of 3 pins. Pins 2 and 5 have 12V to them, then I guess a Ground signal from the ECM on pin 1 half steps the valve in one direction and then a Ground on pin 4 puts the other half step in that direction. To move the valve the other way, the ECM applies Ground signals on the 3 an 6 pins in a similar fashion.
    Is that correct?
    I have a GM 1987 2.8L V6 Fiero. My IAC valve has only 4 pins. I want to make a setup to actuate the value on the bench. My brother is an instructor at Porter and Chester and he would like to have a little set up to demonstrate how IAC valves work to his students. So learning how they actually work is the first step.
    I read 50 Ohms across each pair. I guess one pair moves the valve in one direction, and the other pair moves it in the other direction - but not quite, read on.
    I took some baby steps and tried it with 5V first... no action. Then I tried it with 9V (to be safe).
    One pair of contacts, still no action, but on the other pair puts a small twitch on the plunger in one direction (even if I reverse voltage polarity on the pair, it still twitches in the SAME direction).
    Ok, I guess it does use 12V, but seeing just a twitch is on right path. But the twitch was rotational on the plunger NOT in or out, and again, I expected it to twitch in the other direction using the other pair of contacts - but not the slightest twitch with those contacts!
    So, before I try it at 12V, I need to get a better idea on what signals/timing the ECM puts on the IAC valve to actuate it.
    There appears to be no position feedback from the valve to the ECM.
    I guess on power up, the ECM steps the valve many, many times to get to a fully open (home) position, and then the ECM keeps track of the step pulses to determine its position from then on - until power off.
    I have used stepper motors many times in the past, and that is what is nice about them, you don't normally need any feedback because the are dead on accurate on the position (and knowing it's position) if you pulse them properly. But I have no operational specs on my IAC valve.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

  • @CaretHalfgem
    @CaretHalfgem 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ok last question...? I took off the IAC itself, and there is a little coolant on it and inside the housing. Is that ok as coolant runs through part of it, or should it be completely dry?

    • @CarsNToys

      I haven't come across that on a 4th or 5th gen Maxima. They're usually bone dry.

    • @CaretHalfgem
      @CaretHalfgem 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Actually i found it it should be bone dry. It's been seeping coolant into the throttle body and in be engine...

    • @CaretHalfgem
      @CaretHalfgem 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      And when i pulled the TB off, I found all sorts of coolant basically caked in there. I cleaned what I could and shot a lot of Seafoam inside to hopefully loosen more.

    @christianandales9419 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Does the first test applicable in all 6 pin iacv? Mine is suzuki and has a 6 pin iacv. I wanted to test the iacv coz my engine when running for 30 mins there's a problem occure like when you press the accelerator a little bit the rpm will surge to 1800. Also I notice that when the ac compressor cut off the rpm also surge to almost 1800.

    Hey man i have a question. I did the last test and the pintle shot out of the IAC. Is that because i was stupid or something else every time i turned the car to the off position it would go out so far then it shot out still trying to find it as we speak.

  • @paulbrownfield746
    @paulbrownfield746 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have a 04 Ford Freestar that will act like it's running out of gas at first cold start. Fuel pressure is fine. If I hold RPM's at 3000 or more for a minute it will be fine but RPM's at idle are jerky. No check engine lights are on. Sound like the IACV to you?
    Thanks

    Great video. Buying a good digital meter paid off with its first use. Since my Eclipse GT wasn't throwing any codes, but wouldn't idle, I needed to test the part I thought might be the culprit. This video showed me how to do it. New IAC= Big smile & big savings!

    Im on disabillity, things are tight like most places. That fuse on the IACV also tends to EEC, VPWR, EVR, MAF, ( bulkhead)?
    Most abbreviations I'm familiar, but EEC , EVR? V power ! I guess ?
    Ha ha it starts right up! 5 seconds later it starts to stumble to death (dies)! Plz sir i need help .

    @ carsntoys - I have a 1998 Ford Explorer XLT that idles poorly when cold & only a little better when warm. Is the IAC the problem, or O2, or F/A sensor or "all of the above" ?

      @MrPepperoni92 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +CarsNToys - It was the O2 sensor 1, bank 1. I replaced it (with much grief), with a new one & seems to idle ok. I then took the negative battery cable off for 5 mins., but the check engine light is still on, but the system says all is ok.

    @stevennahulak6696 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great videos. I have a P0505 hard code which I believe has something to do with either the ISC motor and/or ECM. But before I fix this code and spend lots of money, I noticed that all four of my readiness monitors are NOT complete. I understand the procedure to reset these readiness monitors, but do I need to repair this P0505 first BEFORE I can run the readiness monitors? Is there another option or procedure to reset these readiness monitors first?
    I know I can get several other codes when the four readiness monitors are run, but is there a way to reset these monitors so I have an idea of what else is wrong with my vehicle? I don't want to spend money to repair code P0505 ONLY to find out other codes later when the readiness monitors are run. Please help.

      Hi David, in my car, the coil part is easier to remove than the entire IAC. I did a test, the harness was getting 11v, some pins on iacv was having 30ohms while some had 29ohms. While car was idling(though rough idling), I unplugged the iacv harness, i didnt notice any change. If I change only the coil, will the effect be same as changing the entire iacv?

    I'm getting the code to suggest mu iacv us bad. When changing out the iacv am I required to install a new ecm? I've read in several place I should, but your vedio didn't suggest it. Btw, I talk your video as gospel as you do amazing work. One last thing I have a 97 infiniti i30 if that matters. Thanks.

    • @CarsNToys
      @CarsNToys  9 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @manilakid3
      @manilakid3 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Bobby Gee Did you get this fixed? You need to check the ECM if its bad also. When the IAC goes bad, it shorts out the chip in the ECM (this is a common occurrence in maximas and i30s). You'll see a burned chip if you take out the ECM. GL

  • @Overkill1978
    @Overkill1978 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I tested the prongs on my Idle Air Control Valve and they read 42 to 46 Ohms on each compared to your 30. Same model of car (Nissan A32). Is that something to be concerned about?
    Also, when removed but connected to the harness, it moves, but not as much as in this video. It's possible that's just a subjective observation, but if it really doesn't move as much, that a cause for concern?

    • @CarsNToys
      @CarsNToys  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Antonio Java The 30 ohms reading can vary depending on temperature. And if the valve is moving back and forth, and you don't have a trouble code for p0505, I wouldn't worry about it.

      Gotcha. On your vehicle try doing an ohms test on the valve. Grab a digital multi-meter and see if you're getting resistance. Here's another video showing how to perform an ohms test. Fast forward to 50 seconds: th-cam.com/video/j-Wr2VMvfbc/w-d-xo.html

    does the iac valve cause symptons of
    1. high rpm over 1000
    2. low rpm 1000 or less
    3. car shakes when its on
    4. lack of power like if the car wants to shut off while you driving it or not driving it. ???
    5. motor feels weak like if it dont wanna stay on feels like if it want to shut down??
    6. can it also cause battery to die out also??
    sorry just curious to know
    please help me on this one.

    HI Great Video very detailed!
    2 quick questions please? 2001 Nissan Maxima. In park the rpm's go from 1200 to 1800, back to 1200 back to 1800. It does this very quickly and does not stop. Is this a symptom of a bad or crudded up IACV? Also I read one place that replacing the IACV could short the ECM or maybe when it fails it could short the ECM, have you ever heard of this? I'd like to prevent a shorted ECM from happening if possible when I go to check and possibly replace the IACV.
    Thanks a lot!!

    Good Morning, I have a 95 Maxima. Does the Idle Air Control Valve always give a code? Car is not registering any codes. Have to pump accelerator when car has sat over night, rough idle at red lights. If I move it to neutral, car smooths out. Car runs ok once I'm not longer at the idle. Any ideas what could possibly be the problem? Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

    • @CarsNToys
      @CarsNToys  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      kfjones58 Not necessarily. You can have an IACV going without a code showing. Rough idle can be a number of things. Try cleaning the throttle body with throttle body cleaner. Also check the pcv valve and egr valve. I have vids for both. Just search my page. If you still have problems let me know

    Dear guy, My Mitsubishi Galant year 1990 has a problem the rpm not stable in idle. When give load like AC ON or Head Light ON or move the wheel steer
    the idle rpm will run rough up and down excessivelly and sometimes the engine shut down by it self. I already changed the Idle Valve sensor 2 times and check the resistant is ok. The output power from the plug is 12.5 volt, but the problem still exist.
    I checked the movement of the Idle Valve sensor plunger but it movement was only shaking and not extend or retract.
    Is the ECU bad ?
    Please your suggest.
    Thanks alot.

      Primary causes for vehicle shutting off is fuel pump, injector(s), idle air control valve and the ignition circuit. For your particular case, I'd start with the idle control valve. Also check the pcv valve.

    I have a 94 ranger 4.0 that has a very bad idle. Also when I hit the brakes hard it stalls out but only if its low on gas. I can replicate the stall every time but only when its getting close to e. If it has a quarter tank or more, it will not stall at all Sometimes when im at a stop it will jerk. Not sure if thats related. The iac valve looks super clean almost looks brand new. The only code its throwing I looked up and its mass af sensor which I already replaced. Also I can smell that its running very rich.

    • @CarsNToys
      @CarsNToys  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      WaterWhipin Sounds like the fuel pump pickup is toward the rear of the fuel tank. When you're low on fuel and nail the brakes, the fuel is being forced away from the fuel pump pickup point and stalling out. Try to keep enough gas in the tank or you can burn out the fuel pump. The fuel acts as a lubricant for the pump. Regarding the rough idle, first thought is the idle air control valve. Other areas to look at include the fuel pressure regulator. EGR valve and PCV valve (I have videos for both) or you could have a leak at the air duct causing the MAF code. A bad idle can take some time to diagnose.

    • @joeyl853
