model: 318is (M42)
Year: 1991
ECU says MOTRONIC.
My intake manifolds are off and i am trying to cover all the bases for my high idle. I am replacing all the crappy cracked hoses under the intake manifolds. The ICV is disconnected. When the key was in the "start" position, i could hear a buzzing in the ICV when a screwdriver was held to it and on my ear. I suspect it still doesn't work though.
There are two pins on the ICV, What should the resistance be between them? It is currently just over 8 Ohms. (seems low)
I have read on M3 boards that their ICV's when bad will fry two transistors on the ECU. Does this happen on M42's as well?
ALSO: Would any harm be done to close the coolant circuit that goes through the throttle body plate?
Ever so sorry if i searched poorly... but i was unable to find any DIRECT answers to these questions.
TIA y'all
