With the DRBIIIt, read the IAC Current.
Is the IAC Current above 999 mA?
All
Yes → Go To 2
No → Refer to the INTERMITTENT CONDITION symptom in the

Perform POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST VER-5-NGC.
2 Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the IAC Motor harness connector.
With the DRBIIIt, monitor the IAC Current.
Turn the ignition on.
