Idle Air Control (IAC) Motor
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Plymouth Voyager, 1995 Plymouth Grand Voyager, 1995 Dodge Grand Caravan, and 1995 Dodge Caravan. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The motor adjusts idle speed to compensate for engine load and ambient temperature by adjusting amount of air flowing through by-pass in throttle body. PCM uses coolant temperature, distance (speed) sensor, throttle position and various switch input operations to adjust IAC motor to obtain optimum idle conditions. Deceleration stall is prevented by increasing airflow when throttle is closed suddenly.
