Hi Peter. I have a 2003 Tacoma (same as the cream puff you had the video on). I’m at 260k miles and my ac will be working than goes hot. I can usually get it back to cold with a quick turn of the dial. Any idea if it’s just a bad dial or something else?

Thank for teaching fantastic teacher

Keith on the GAP says:

Those "philipshead" screws actually need a special tool. I think it's called a JIS driver?

Leo R says:

Peter you forgot to give us the after repair video of the engine running with the idle fixed. Thanks

Mike Boyer says:

Love the vids. Maybe put the code in the title of the vid so anyone searching for help with that code will find your vid easier.

Does Toyota Auris have one ?

Gary Wolff says:

Bill Simpson says:

Sure wish Peter would have shown us the inside of that unit.

My 13 Corolla idles 400-500 shakes at stop signs. It does correct it self but almost shuts off. Cleaned the throttle body and no codes can this be a culprit ?

I wish I had this video a few years ago when my 2003 rc300 my iacv died and really annoyed me, especially after the cheap Chinese knockoff wasn’t even built right!!

Hello, does the 1GR-FE use an IAC? Thank you

pablo jimenez says:

Be carefull with the cables of the IAC….if you shorten one, it will trigger another code: P0505 (IAC defective voltage circuit or IAC valve ground cable shorter)…then you have to fix the broken cable to clean that code.
Also, don't use aftermarket….they don't work.
If is not possible to get the original part (they are expensive, $270), clean the original, but is necessary a special screw driver head to disassembly completelly…

Thankyou for showing

Kevin Glover says:

What is the manufacturer of replacement part(iec)? Could the fact that the old part(iec) was made in Mexico opposed to Japan, be a factor in the part failing? You did use an Autel scanner to find the code. Most drivers of modern vehicles don't realize how quickly they can find these codes even though they may work with computers daily.
