Test NTC-9A - Checking Idle Air Control Motor
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Dodge Dakota. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
For circuit and connector terminal identification, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION . For wiring diagrams, see WIRING DIAGRAM section.
- Using scan tool, set engine speed to 1100 RPM. If engine speed sets at 1050-1150 RPM, idle speed motor is operating properly. Test is complete. If engine speed does not set at 1050-1150 RPM, return engine to normal idle speed. Disconnect Idle Air Control (IAC) motor connector.
- Put scan tool in voltmeter mode. Using scan tool, check voltage on IAC motor connector Brown/White wire while momentarily opening and closing throttle. If voltage is less than one volt, go to TEST NTC-9B. If voltage is more than one volt, go to next step.
- Using scan tool, check voltage on IAC motor connector Yellow/Black wire while momentarily opening and closing throttle. If voltage is less than one volt, go to TEST NTC-9B. If voltage is more than one volt, go to next step.
- Using scan tool, check voltage on IAC motor connector Gray/Red wire while momentarily opening and closing throttle. If voltage is less than one volt, go to TEST NTC-9B. If voltage is more than one volt, go to next step.
- Using scan tool, check voltage on IAC motor connector Violet/Black wire while momentarily opening and closing throttle. If voltage is less than one volt, go to TEST NTC-9B. If voltage is more than one volt, go to next step.
- Check engine for vacuum leaks. Repair as required. Perform TEST VER-2. If no vacuum leaks are observed, replace IAC motor. Perform TEST VER-2.
