'02 Lexus RX300 Stall After Starting (Idle Air Control Valve Fix)

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Is your 2002 Lexus RX stalling immediately after starting the engine? Will it start and run, but only if you hold the throttle? This video will likely solve your problem!

    Thank you!! Our 2003 RX300 started, but wouldn't idle, exactly as you described. But, by following your instructions, my husband was able to fix the problem. He needed a little WD-40 to loosen the twin hoses after removing their 10mm clamps plus a little more and a couple of taps on the air control valve's screws to get them turning. But, after completing the job in less than an hour, the car runs better than before and you saved us a tow and a trip to a mechanic! Excellent how-to video! Thanks again!

    Hey Revit Auto, thanks a bunch for the video and how to fix the IAC. My family and I depend on our Lexus and money has been tight lately. This fix worked on our 1999 Lexus RX300 exactly as you have shown in your video! 😊 Lastly, it means a lot to my wife that I got our car up & running. It has a great deal of sentimental value since the original owner was my father-in-law who passed away back in January 2021. My wife took it pretty hard when her dad passed and our Lexus means the world to her since that is all she has left of him. That's how much of an impact your video had on my family's life. Thanks again and take care.

    Thank you very much for your video. I own a 2000 Toyota Windom 3.0G in Japan, which is the same model as the ES300 in America. In my case, the idle speed would not drop below around 1200, so I tried the same method and the idle became low and stable. If anyone is considering replacing the IAC valve, I think they should do this first.

    Truly great video. Thank you. I bought my 2002 new with 4 miles on it in Nov 2002. Now with 168,250 it has been a blessing of incalculable value. Mine runs really well. I just replaced the pcv valve which I strongly recommend every do every 30k miles. A $10 part and a 10 minute fix does wonders. I also run a can of BG 44k in tank (pour in before filling with gas) every 10k miles. This keeps the throttle body and lots of other parts squeaky clean.

    4:44. At that point, I take the hose off and block off the exit pipe that's attached to the idle control valve. I then fill up the breather hole with throttle body cleaner until it over flows. I then move the wheel back and forth. I then fill it again as some drains out and repeat. I then leave it for a few minutes, then I unplug the pipe. Doing this fills the chamber and cleans the underside of the value which is what actually gets clogged up preventing it from moving freely. I also take the opportunity to clean the throttle bodies and butterfly valves. You can see the dark edges around the butterfly valves which just need a few squirts of the cleaner then a soft tooth brush and a clean lint free polish cloth to wipe down. On this vehicle, they're operated by the throttle cable. You can engage the throttle cable to open the valves which means it's not drive by wire and no problem with touching the actual butterfly valves, very carefully and gently still.

    Thank you for the video, great information on how to repair. The screws can be issue. Had to remove the air box to make room for hand impact tool, even that didn't seem to budge (housing not that sturdy didn't hit to hard). Soaked with pb blaster and grabbed with small vise grips. Was able to finally rock and remove the screws. They seem to freeze in the housing not the threads.

    Hey same here. If I were you, I would tap the screws or the surrounding solid metal body of the IAC to the loosen those screws prior for better removal. Today I did it, and tapping it with a hammer helped a lot! If it weren't for that, for sure I would've stripped them.

    Thanks for the GREAT DETAILED video; the engine in my 2001 Toyota Sienna is identical to the one in your video! Was unable to remove the IAC from the engine to clean it in the same way you did; the screws would not budge. However, I removed the tube from below the IAC, plugged it and then sprayed cleaner into the hole in front of the butterfly valve until it was full, let it sit for about 30 seconds, removed the plug and let the cleaner drain, waited a while to dry before reassembling everything. This appeared to fix the start/idle problem so far. I think one of the screws on my IAC is stripped. In video you said one of the screws on your IAC was also stripped; how did you remove it? And how did you loosen the other screw?

    Thank you for your response. I removed everything as in video. Pretty simple. I cleaned everything and used q-tips until I was satisfied it was clean. Intake was cleaned throughly. All hoses placed back. I replaced Philip screws with new stainless steel screws. Start up was not normal because of excess carb cleaner but then idle remained at 2000 and climb to 3000. Depressing the accelerator did not help.

    Jimmy, be sure to comment on the same comment thread. It makes it easier for other people with similar problems to follow the diagnostic. Thank you for the more in-depth look at what was going on. I would go ahead and take everything apart, make sure that the idle air control valve is moving freely and not just stuck in the open position. Upon reinstallation double check every single hose connection and verify that they are all tight with no leaks. If you accidentally leave a hose on, you will have the condition that you describe. They call it a vacuum leak. If you recheck everything and there is nothing wrong upon visual inspection your idle air control valve may need to be replaced as it could be in the stuck open position. Be sure to take it apart and assemble again! Let me know what you find! -Blair

I just replaced the battery and think the ES300 would warn me that the alternator is the problem if there was an alternator problem. Mine is running rough and stalls do to low idle. She runs well at highway speeds in that she seems to have full power. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Bill

Very oddly the battery died and had to be replaced so maybe the change in octane and a minor computer reset with the removal of the battery might have had something to do with the stalling. It's cleared up now but I'm still on the same tank of fuel, I'm curious to see what happens if the fuel returns to 87 octane,

    Hey I have a very important question I did exactly what was in the video to the exact same car and when I took out the two Phillips screws from the sensor mine did not turn freely and was stuck completely I cleaned mine just like you showed me and then it was so smooth afterwards it turned really freely so I put it all back together exactly in the way that you showed and exactly the way I took it apart, now the car starts right up better and different in a good way then before but my RX300 is now idleing high at 3000 RPM’s or a little higher and I did not do that before ….. is there some kinda way to have the car relearn the sensor or something ??? Please help because I can’t drive the car at all now because it’s ideling way to high to put into gear ?? Please please help me thank you and your videos are the best

    Thank you so much for the detail!! I think what you are fighting is a vacuum leak and not a sensor relearn issue. Check all of the connection in the car for air that would enter the engine in a location it is not supposed to. Check for loose hoses and intake boots that aren’t put on all the way. You will likely find it to be a quick and simple hose unplugged ! I will check here again to see how your progresses

    My cat 2000 RX 300. Did this same thing without me having done any changes. Kind of scary when you are expecting your car to cruise to a stop and instead it speeds up. In my case the cable or something got stuck occasionally. I cleaned it up with WD-40 I think and have never had the problem since.

    It is really challenging to diagnose something without seeing the car. It is certainly possible that the Idle air control valve is causing the idle to be rough. Do you know the service history of the car? Has it had coils or spark plugs replaced recently? Are there any check engine lights? Thanks- Blair

    It can, if IACV is not allowing enough air through your intake. But typically you'll have more symptoms then just running rich. Any other check engine codes? Does your vehicle start-up and idle ok? Need more info.

    The reason so many are stripping that screw is because it is NOT a Phillips head screw driver. When the dot is on the screw head that means it’s a Japanese type of screw similar to the Philips head screw but has a slightly different head profile than our American Phillips heads They are Japanese Industrial Standard screw heads. The screwdrivers can be found online. Better to order before you need than.
