I took apart a frozen IAC valve from a 2000 Echo that had been sitting for 17 years and gave up on trying to free-up the valve when I broke the magnet. I took a chance on a new less than $20 aftermarket IAC valve that took a week for Amazon to deliver but it works great. It claimed compatibility with 2000-2005 Echo, 2004-2006 Scion xA & xB. I almost went to a salvage yard but the new gasket included with the new idle air control valve convinced me to give it a try. Now it idles correctly again. I got lucky.
yeah usually when i clean the throttle body i attach the little hose piece to the throttle body cleaner and stick it down in the hole. I have done this for years after replacing the part. you can also take it apart by removing those two bolts and make sure its spinning around and not getting stuck by dirt etc. :P
It looks like the black plastic electrical section comes off the valve body Are you able to disassemble the old unit and try and to free up the sticking valve Cheers
Great video. Same as my problem. The three screws on mine are are near impossible to get out. I put every thing back started car, high idle still of course. Gave a tap while idling and instantly revs dropped to normal. Not a proper fix of course. At least I know what the issue is.
My 13 Corolla idles 400-500 shakes at stop signs. It does correct it self but almost shuts off. Cleaned the throttle body and no codes can this be a culprit ?
Thank you so much for your video. Appreciate it if you could share with me how much is the electrical resistance between the three pins of the IAC actuator. Is it around 20 Ohm?
The idle on my Corolla was all over the place so disconnected the IAC and now won't drop below 1100rpm. I've removed the throttle body, cleaned the IAC as the shaft wasn't moving freely but does now. Hopefully that will solve it.
I scraped out alot of carbon with a screw driver and used brake cleaner. I knew it wasn't working because i couldn't hear the magnet spinning and kept cutting out.
Can it also be a symptom of a very very low idle? car struggles when cold especially for starting and sometimes will die. performance improves when car warms up.
I wish I had this video a few years ago when my 2003 rc300 my iacv died and really annoyed me, especially after the cheap Chinese knockoff wasn’t even built right!!
Hi Peter I have a 2004 matrix and I had an issue with high idle I have and the pedal sticking when steping on the pedal, I have chage the IAC valve 2 times and even have change the hole thorttel body, and Im still having high RMS.. your thought's?
I went to the dealer to price around for an Idle Air Control Valve. Part number 22270-22050 for a 3ZZ-FE engined Toyota Corolla 2000. They go for 735 euro after tax here in the Netherlands. What a rip-off. I just ordered the IACV gasket, the 4 JIS screws and the throttle body gasket. Gonna have to look for an used one, unfortunately. The entire throttle body assembly (with the IACV and Throttle Position Sensor) go for around 100 euro used. So I think I will try that.
Hi Peter. I have a 2003 Tacoma (same as the cream puff you had the video on). I’m at 260k miles and my ac will be working than goes hot. I can usually get it back to cold with a quick turn of the dial. Any idea if it’s just a bad dial or something else?
i had same problem but with a 2004 pontiac vibe gt, replace the iac , i try to open the old one but it has a 5 point start bolt, i only have 6 point star bit
I have p0300 random mis fire rough idle on my 03 corolla 230,xxx miles should I replace the IAC cause I didn't get a code from the IAC. Replace brand new NGK Iridium spark plug, used 4 ignition coil, clean out all 4 fuel injector, replace intake manifold Gasket, throttle body gasket and ICA gasket. Couldn't find no vacuum leak and no fuel leak
Anybody know the part number of the IAC for a 2009 Rav4, 2AR-FE 2.5 liter engine. When I asked for this at the local dealership they just look at me like I'm stupid. Any help is appreciated .
