What kind of clicking should you here from the ISC after you shut the engine off? Is it very distinct, multiple clicks, or just one click? I am trying to diagnose an iratic high idle ( 1000-1200rpm) after the engine is warmed up. The TSRM says to check the ISC, I here no click whatsoever. I have removed it and tested o.k. for ohms resistance but I cant get it to do anything when I apply power to it directly from a battery per TSRM.

12000rpm? lol


Mine makes a very distinctive clicking noise. Its a deeper sound than retention of heat exchange on manifold covers after engine turn shut-off per say, mine clicks 3 times.

I can tomorrow sometime after work upload a sound clip of mine in action if you need mate?

lol thanks for pointing out the typo. I would love to hear what I am supposed to be listening for, although if its that distinct I have the feeling mine is bad.

If it doesn't open and close when power is applied to it, it's almost certainly bad.

Here we go mate. My mates Celica ST165 GT-four is also running in the back ground.

You can hear the distinctive clicking sound.

"Tick tick tick" 3 seconds into the vid clip.
