    Idle control valv problems

    ok to start my car i have to pop the hood and put in the middle white relay. this relay controls the idle control valv and a couple of other things. the problem is, everything gose off, exept for the idle control valv...it just sits there and buzzes till my battery gose dead. it kinda sucks..anyway i replaced the relay and pulled all the extra old alarm crap that was under the dash hooked to everything...and there it sits still buzzing:letitout:
    so it would be great if some of you guy could help me out or give me some ideas...thanks...btw sorry about the spelling im in a hurry

    The ICV buzzing when the ignition is off means that the DME is powered up. If this car is a 325, the fuel relay should be the middle one and the main relay should be closest to the front of the car. But the relay sockets snap into the holder and may have been swapped around at some point. Pull all three relays and see if the ICV still buzzes. If it does, there's a wiring fault somewhere. If not you may be pulling the fuel relay and have a bad main relay.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
