Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic procedures.

  1. 6

    This step simulates the Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal supplied to the IAC valve by the PCM by rapidly grounding and removing ground from terminal No. 1 of IAC valve.
  2. 8

    The most likely cause of no power is an open circuit condition between the IAC valve connector terminal No. 2 and splice. A shorted or inoperative EFI relay circuit will cause a no-start condition.
