- Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
- Disengage the wiring harness connector from the IAC valve .
- Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the terminals of the valve.
NOTE: Due to the diode in the solenoid, place the ohmmeter
positive lead on the VPWR terminal and the negative lead
on the ISC terminal.
- If the resistance is not 7–13 ohms, replace the IAC valve.

NOTE: The Idle Air Control (IAC) valve is an integral component
of the Bypass Air Control (BAC) valve.
- Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
- Disengage the wiring harness connector from the IAC valve .
- Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the terminals of the valve.

- The resistance should measure 10.7–12.3 ohms at 68°F (20°C)
for 3.0L equipped models and 7.7–9.3 ohms at 73°F (23°C) for
2.6L engine equipped models.
- If the resistance does not measure within specifications, replace the BAC
valve.
