5. Działanie

The Idle Air Control Valve operates automatically, controlled by the vehicle's Engine Control Unit (ECU). Its primary function is to maintain a stable engine idle speed under various conditions, such as when the air conditioning is turned on, or electrical loads change. The IACV adjusts the amount of air bypassing the throttle plate to compensate for these changes, preventing the engine from stalling or idling too high.

Once installed, the IACV requires no direct user interaction for its operation. Its performance is continuously monitored by the ECU.

6. Konserwacja

The IACV itself is generally a sealed unit and does not require routine maintenance. However, carbon buildup can affect its performance over time. If you experience idle issues, cleaning the throttle body and the IACV's air passages can sometimes resolve the problem.

6.1. Cleaning Recommendations

• Use a specialized throttle body cleaner.
• Never use harsh solvents or abrasive materials.
• Avoid spraying cleaner directly into the electrical connector.
• Always follow the instructions on the cleaner product.

Regular engine maintenance, including air filter replacement and fuel system cleaning, can help prevent excessive carbon buildup that might affect IACV operation.
