Idle Speed Control Servo & Motor Position Sensor (1.8L)
- Motor position sensor is integral with idle speed control servo, located on throttle body. Disconnect motor position sensor connector. Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between motor position sensor terminals No. 2 and 3. See Figure . Ohmmeter should read 4000-6000 ohms.
- If resistance is not within specification, replace idle speed control servo. If resistance is within specification, go to next step.CAUTION: When activating idle speed control plunger, DO NOT apply more than 6 volts. Higher voltage may cause damage to servo gears.
- Disconnect idle speed control servo connector. Connect a 6-volt power source between idle speed control servo terminals No. 1 and 2 to activate idle speed control servo plunger. See Figure .
- Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between motor position sensor terminals No. 3 and 5 when idle speed control servo plunger is activated. Ohmmeter should read 4000-6000 ohms.
- Replace idle speed control servo if resistance is not within specification, or if idle speed control servo plunger does not extend and retract smoothly.
