I am hoping he will be able to test the ICs in circuit. Sometimes They can be a little problematic, especially without schematics.

Wow that was easy enough to see the fried chip. My fluctuating RPMs is what's making me think the chip was damaged. I wish it was more clearly seen.

Just for clarification. I went ahead and replaced the entire IAC, as the coolant should not have been in there. The gasket was also replaced.

I guess I can get a foot of hose and cut off what I need. As others have done it, I don't need to worry about the hose pinching, and it would make putting the throttle body back on much easier. ...

Yeah, I'm hoping the 2 Ohm load is keeping it from being a dead short and blowing the 509's. Though my friend did a quick calculation and said, "well that's 6 amps of power, it MIGHT be fried."

And just a quick update. I said "no resistance" between two sets of pins. It was actually about a 2 OHM load. Maybe not enough to fry the chip, or maybe just not enough to do external damage.

I'll have to save this thread for my tech friend to read. The problem is that I have no clue which pin is from the IACV. Maybe it's in my Haynes book.

And now after all this time it's my turn.

It looks like my IAC is fried on posts 4,5,6 in terms of having a short, and no resistance between 4&5 and 5&6. But 1&2, and 2&3 have about 24 ohms.
