    could they be mixed up you think?

    and no this didnt just start, but i've read that if you unplug a good IACV then your idle should raise but mine doesnt...

    The iacv is two wires and the knock is one wire, But they are the same plug.
    I have seen people mix those wires up and the iat also. Have you had this problem since you purchased the car,or since someone worked on it?

    Go look at the plug on the iacv and see if it has two wires or one.
