CAR IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE WORKING

An engine includes many components, each with a significant function to improve the car’s performance. One such auto component is the idle air control valve (IACV), also known as an IAC car idle control valve or Idle Speed Control (ISC) valve.

It is an essential component in modern fuel-injected internal combustion engines. It regulates the engine’s idle speed and maintains stable and consistent idle RPM when the throttle closes, or a car decelerates.

PROCESS-1: HOW TO TEST IAC USING A MULTIMETER

You can check the IAC car idle control valve’s electrical circuit by performing a resistance test using a multimeter. This test will help determine whether the car idle control valve’s windings are within the specified range. Here’s how to do it:

• Disconnect the electrical connector from the car idle control valve.
• Set your multimeter to the ohms (Ω) setting.
• Touch the multimeter’s probes to the appropriate pins on the car idle control valve’s electrical connector. Refer to the vehicle’s repair manual for the correct pinout and resistance specifications.
• Compare the measured resistance with the manufacturer’s specified range. If the resistance falls outside the recommended range, the car idle control valve valve may be faulty and require replacement.

PROCESS-2: HOW TO TEST THE FUNCTIONALITY OF IAC

To check if the car idle control valve is functioning properly, you can perform a functional test:

• Reconnect the electrical connector to the car idle control valve.
• Start the engine and allow it to warm up to normal operating temperature.
• Disconnect the electrical connector from the car idle control valve with the engine running, 
• Observe the engine’s behaviour. If the idle speed drops or the engine stalls after disconnecting the idle air control valve, it indicates that the car idle control valve is functioning correctly. If there’s no change in idle speed or engine operation, the car idle control valve may be faulty.

FAQS

1. IS IT SAFE TO DRIVE WITH A BAD CAR IDLE AIR MOTOR CONTROL VALVE?

Driving with a bad Car Idle Air Motor Control (IAC) valve can be risky as it may cause irregular engine idling, stalling, or unexpected shutdowns. These issues can compromise vehicle control and safety, especially in traffic. It's advisable to address the problem promptly to ensure safe driving conditions.

2. HOW TO BYPASS THE CAR IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE?

Bypassing the car Idle Motor Air Control (IAC) valve is generally not recommended because it can lead to engine performance issues. However, if necessary, you can manually set the idle by adjusting the throttle stop screw. This adjustment bypasses the IAC's function but should only be done temporarily or in an emergency.

4. HOW DO I CHANGE THE CAR IDLE CONTROL VALVE/STEPPER MOTOR IN MY CAR?

car idle control valve replacement varies from vehicle to vehicle, but it is fairly straightforward in most cases. Vehicle specific repair information should be consulted before replacing your car idle control valve. Typical car idle control valve replacement is as follows:

• Disconnect the negative battery terminal
• Disconnect the car idle control valve electrical connector
• Remove the car idle control valve attaching screws
• Remove the car idle control valve assembly
• Install in the reserve order of removal
