Tridon IAC Idle Air Control Valve for Jeep Cherokee KJ Wrangler TJ 3.7L 4.0L

Content : Tridon IAC Idle Air Control Valve

The idle air control valve sometimes known as an IAC, is an electrical actuating device designed to electromechanically control engine idle speed.

The idle air control valve is an essential part of the vehicle engine management system, integrated into a bypass housing or located on or near the throttle body assembly. The idle air control valve allows a measured amount of air to bypass the throttle plate/butterfly when it is closed, enabling the ECU to accurately control the idle speed of the vehicle's engine.

The idle air control valve must be compatible with the vehicle engine management system.

The IAC position is adjusted quickly to compensate for engine load and is commonly required for or during engine start-up, cold start/engine warm up, additional electrical loads, deceleration, air conditioning and automatic transmission use.

When an idle air control valve malfunction or fault is suspected the entire engine management system should be checked with the faults diagnosed and repairs carried out by a trained professional.

As idle air control valve electrical circuits, technical specifications and appearance may vary, always refer to the vehicle application list to ensure correct part number selection.
