  3. To check ISC valve, turn ignition off. Unplug ISC valve connector. Measure resistance between ISC valve terminals. See Fig 1. See ISC VALVE RESISTANCE SPECIFICATIONS  table. Replace ISC valve if resistance is not as specified.
    ISC VALVE RESISTANCE SPECIFICATIONS

    Terminals Ohms
    B1 to S1 or S3 10-30
    B2 to S2 or S 10-30
    NOTE: Before removing ISC valve, drain coolant from cooling system. Remove both coolant by-pass hoses. On Supra Turbo only, ensure check valve and seal washer are installed in air intake chamber.
  4. To check valve operation, remove ISC valve from vehicle. Apply battery voltage to terminal B1 and terminal B2. See Fig 1. Repeatedly ground terminals S1, S2, S3 and S in sequence. Valve should close. Remove ground wires.
