Just did this on wife's camry and now it idles perfectly. Quite amazing how this valve operates with an electromagnet and tiny water jacket. you should remove front of unit and work the valve while spraying in cleaner
I have a 2006 xB with 240k miles and it idles smooth. I clean the IAC and replace the pcv when I notice that the idle is not smooth. But I don't remove IAC from the car. I spray cab cleaner in to the port for the IAC then turn the car on. Repeat step several times until the car idles smooth.
I found that removing the electromagnet allows you to confirm that you cleaned it thoroughly, it will spin. your method only half cleaned it there is carbon in spots you can't see.
The IAC valve on my AE101R Corolla was so caked up, it still wouldn't move after a good cleaning. I had to take off the green solenoid and grab the end of the shaft with a pair of pliers (I should have put a rag between the pliers and shaft, but anyway), rotating it either way to eventually free it up to clean the places I couldn't get to originally because it was stuck half open. No more idling at 2000rpm with the air-conditioning on now 😅
I have a 1995 Toyota Tacoma 2.7 that I have had for about 11 years 330000 miles on my good little truck . I’ve not had any issues with it so speak of.My coil needed to be changed it had lots of cracks in it was hard to start etc so I changed it . There were no problems with the truck until after I changed my coil . I now have a bad miss when I get it to about 2500 rpm ??? I have changed the coil 3 times trying to see if I have a bad coil . Not so ??? Spark plugs are good Distributor is good I’m at a loss why it’s not running right after I changed the coil . I’m going to clean my Throttlebody this weekend but need help finding my problem . Have you seen this before with a Tacoma 2.7 1997 thank you
its very good your comments and explanations . We have one hilux 4x4 2RZFE 1999 now i have high rpm , idle iregular I go to clean and lubricate . thanks very much for your experiencies , best regards Joaquin Chile
IAC QUESTION; Do you know if the IAC Is responsible for raising the idle speed when you turn the a/c on in an older Camry? I know the computer is involved, but does the IAC do the physical work? My 99 Camry's idle spools up a bit higher, then it settles down to exactly where it was when I press the a/c button to on. What is confusing to me is my previous 98 Corolla maintained a higher idle speed when I pressed the a/c button on to help with the bigger load on the engine. Just not sure if my Camry is supposed to be doing the same thing.
as folding says, just watched a video (shade tree auto mechanic) where a guy says he taps the screws with a hammer to get them to separate because they are always super tight due to the metal (aluminum to iron). Supposedly, this is NOT due to someone overtightening. Just relaying the msg, no idea if he is right. Also, you can test the IAC valve? opening and closing with the 12V battery, center is positive and edges are negative.
Hey there! Love how informative your videos are!! I'm about to do this service on my 93 3.0VZE 4runner as I am getting a bad (1200RPM climbing to nearly 2000rpm) idle when the engine is cold. Once it warms up it runs normal. Do you think this IAC valve is the culprit?
Hello, what about Electronic Throttle Body that has rivets on the IAC instead of screws or bolts? How to open the IAC? Toyota Avensis T25 1.6 2008 Manual 5 Speed. Thank you
If I need a new IAC , Amazon say $604.36 if I want the Toyota OME, plus Canadian tax around $700. CND. I can buy a Standard Motor Product version for around $500. CND tax included ..but who are they? I notice you didn't try to get the two small screws off the plastic cap and spray through the hole in the throttle body. Thanks
Hi Peter. I received changed my spark plugs and wires. I used the correct plugs ,double tipped , I decided to use the ngk blue wires. I also cleaned the MAF. My Idle is now a bit lower. 500-600 rpms at operating warm engine. This seems to be a bit low in my opinion even though it runs smoothly. What do I need to do if anything?
Try resetting the idle, there are video on TH-cam on how to do that it’s real simple. From what I’ve heard it’s helped lots of people with similar issues.
My idle doesn't "jump around" on my 2000 prizm (corolla). It starts cold at around 1100 RPMs, then steadily climbs until fully warm at 1950 RPMs in park. I have P0505 on. Is this the IAC or likely something else?
Hi there is a very strong cleaning agent used that I use for motorcycle carburators that is called compression stabilizer would that work? If the carburettor internals is soaked in that cleaning agent for 15 minutes the metal Is becaming shining clean
I think this CRC product is better and also others as well that we're specified for Throttle body cleaner. It is safer for your engine as well as in your car's catalytic converter. You may read instructions when you found 1 of em.
I had to replace the IACV on my 2002 Tacoma with the V6 at the dealership a few years back and the mechanic pointed out a couple of small vacuum tubes sticking out of the top of the intake manifold. He said to run some TB cleaner through there once and awhile but I'm not sure which tube to use or does it make a difference. They were real close together. Will that help the IACV stay clean longer and would Seafoam work ok for a cleaner?
Hi Toyota Maintenance. I found your video very useful, but as you said before you can clean your valve, but in the long run it will be back again with problems. I have problems with the Idle valve on my corolla 1993 with the 7AFE engine. Yesterday i try to replace the valve for a Chinese part(isumo) a complete waste of time. Please from what online shop can i order a really good OEM Valve for my car? Or how i can order one from a Toyota dealer? Thanks for your help in advance. Keep doing these great videos.
I have a Toyota 2001 Camry 4 cyl I was cleaning.my. Throttle body control I d spray it with a throttle body Cleaning plus I sprayed that Idle Air without taking the hose. After that my car did not start any more any good info guys it would be helpful
one question , i have a toyota 4runner2002 and the engine light is on, the smog check didnt past i've been told to replace the idle control system valve my question is Can i just pay for a valve cleaning? and how much will it cost me ?
Andrea G That's 2 questions lol. Yes, you can pay to have it cleaned, but it's an easy job to do. Shops around me charge $60-100 an hour labor. To remove the iac and replace it on a 4runner, it takes about 30 minutes for me to do it.
Acquired 2003 Corolla, 135,000 MI., Starting cold idles at 1900 RPM for too long, then drops to normal, otherwise runs great. I thought the idle speed too high cold. Any suggestions. Great video.
That cold idle speed for a Gen 9 Corolla is OK, but you need to change the intake manifold gasket. Use the Toyota gasket that has been improved over the original design. The updated gasket is orange in color.
My friend had an toyota unser 1.8 had a black smoke...I've clean the throttle body,clean the exzos sensor,clean the fuel injector...even i've top overhaul but still the black smoke keeps coming back....
I have a 1998 4Runner. I am getting a strong vibration when I come to a stop at idle. I feel it in the steering wheel and under my feet. I had the throttle body cleaned about a year ago. Could this be an IAC issue?
I want to ask you, when your at a stop light and try to take off does the engine feel like its missing? And then once you speed up the vibration dissapears? Im looking around and im about to try and diagnose this same issue and to my knowledge it should be the idle air control valve. I took my throttle body apart the other day and i did my best to clean the iac but i didnt have the right spray and the 4runner is my only vehicle. But it was pretty dirty. I believe it is just sticking. Theres not much "force" that moves that valve as its magnetically controlled. I bought a replacement off of 1A Auto and im waiting for that to come in. My first step is to thourgholy clean the valve first and then test to see how it does. The next step (if cleaning does not work) is to replace it. Ill do one step at a time and share my results. Seems like a stupid easy fix.
@@scream4meplz1994 the engine is smooth once I press the gas and get going it's only when I am slowing down and come to a stop. I had the throttle body cleaned really good about a year ago. Now I'm starting to think it may be the drive shaft. Taking it back in soon. I will let you know.

Kobrah RC Kobrah RC It's not the temp sensor. Try cleaning the iac valve. If the idle drops afterwards, then get ready to replace the iac. Your idle should jump up at first start, then drop down to around 750.

We almost haave the same issue, tho our corolla doesn't have check engine light. I'll hust going to clean it later or tomorrow and see the cold start difference.
My 2001 Toyota Corolla idles rough. I put a new iac in it but it didn't help. I went and bought another one and it still didn't make a difference. When I go down the road its fine, but when I start it the idle will jump up and down between 500 and 1000 rpms. When I unplug the iac it keeps running the same. Any input? I did get a p0171 code, but I cleared it and it hasn't come back. That was three weeks ago.

Hi i have Camry 96 with high Idle all the time and i mentioned that the car is always cold, so i think that the choke is always working, how can i disconnect the choke to check first and than how to let the car get warm? i'm in gulf countries so i think some body disconnected the temperature sensor or something else to keep the ca cold...
I suggest that you try replacing the coolant thermostat because it controls how much cold coolant goes into the engine. If the thermostat is stuck open the engine will stay cold and therefore idle higher than normal. Replacing the thermostat fixed my Camry anyway.
Hi...i need your help..my car is toyota caldina zt 1az fse engine 2003..everytime I start up my car when its cold or if the car has not been driven for a few hours the cars jerks and hesitate when accelerate..i can hear the exhaust is popping..its like the car is not getting enough gas or something i'm not sure about that ....After the car warms up its fine..and now my car is running rich of gas with no acceleration and leak of power...feels like driving a 1.3 litres engine even its 2.0...i dont know what should i do since i had spent a lot of money for this car...throttle body clean up,a new spark plugs,ecu reset and scan and so on just to make my car going back to normal...but i cant see nothing is changing...😖😖😖😖
Gustavo Marci Could be a lot of different problems. I had a ford do that and it turned out to be the valves. 3 valves had low compression. It could be bad plugs, coil packs or sparkplug wires, restricted exhaust system and so on. You should do a leak down test on the valves.
Yes my brother had this problem and was burning rich heavily. A part from his intake broke and fell back into the body of his come filter and was causing a bad reading from the MAF. The original commenter may he seeing a MAF problem or even worse, piston problems or damaged cylinder walls. Hope you guys got your problems sorted out.
NO NO NO NO!!!! They are Not Phillips…you are lucky you did not strip the top. Those screw/bolts are Japanese Industrial Standard . Look at the small dot on the head of the screw/bolt. There are specific JIS bits and screwdrivers for Japanese bikes and cars.
Nikola S You will eventually. Cleaning it is just a bandaid repair. Don't buy the generic iac valves either. Toyota's are very sensitive. Shell out the money and fix it right. $220 is what my wife just paid for the factory version.
I viewed several mechanics on this subject, but this fellow is tops.

So if I clean it I don't have to replace it with a new one?
Nikola S You will eventually. Cleaning it is just a bandaid repair. Don't buy the generic iac valves either. Toyota's are very sensitive. Shell out the money and fix it right. $220 is what my wife just paid for the factory version.
Do you have a video on how to remove the iac valve from the throttle body?
Nikola S Yes. Go to my page on here. I just uploaded one yesterday. I tried to keep it simple without the long talking.
Can I use something else besides this cleaner?
I clean my not working
curious, can you just soak this? in mineral spirits or something?

$300.00
