Using OBD II Scan Tool (Excluding Toyota Hand-Held Tester)

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
When the air conditioning operates (increased engine load), battery positive voltage is applied to terminal A/C of the ECM (A/C signal).
The ECM then controls the Idle Air Control (IAC) valve to increase the idle speed while the A/C signal is input to the ECM, thus maintaining driveability.
