I am really messed with this IAC valve thing. My car has rotery solenoid valve as IAC. RSC coil for closing side and RSO for opening side. ECU provides a PWM to one and inverted to the other. (i.e. If RSO gets PWM with 75% duty cycle, RSC gets its inverted PWM which is 25%. This makes a resultant force to IAC open 50%.)
My data sheet gives the RSC and RSO values attached herewith. Please see picture 1.You can see resultant of IAC is at idling with no AC, is "closed".
But when I check it in my car, the resultant of IAC at idling with no AC is, "opened". Please see picture 2 & 3.
Picture 2 is RSO. Picture 3 is RSC. ( eventhough it should give inverted to each other please disregard it since it's an issue with oscilloscope.i.e. time shift does not shown by oscilloscope.)
1) I checked for vacuume leaks and none found.
2) I also checked these RSC, RSO values at different throttle adjusting screw setting. No change.
3) Checked IAC with values in datasheet and it was OKAY.
4) Also I checked idling speed which is at around 750 rpm.
5) Also I checked rpm when AC switched on which is increased from 750 to around 900.
Pic 1 - first two graphs are RSO and RSC without AC.
Pic 2 - RSC without AC
Pic 3 - RSO without AC
What is the issue in my car? Why can't I get the setup in the datasheet?
Officially joined the thel-hinganna normie horde with ....drumroll... a 2025 Vezel... I am eagerly anticipating joining the 'thel keeyak karanawada' debates at almsgivings.
Recently, got the opportunity to see and get inside of The one and only Japanese V12, Toyota Century(a.k.a Japanese Rolls Royce). Is it really upto Rolls Royce standards? Nope, I don't think so. Items like Switches and mirror housings are in plastic. But, we can be assured that the dashboard will not light up like Christmas and would run forever....
...and just like that from having parking space issues a few month's back I'm car-less.
The cost of renting something for a month or two (even more - personal imports have been quite messy of late) made me wonder if it actually makes sense to buy a quickly disposable car and get rid of it in a couple of months - but it seems the 'popular' models aren't moving. A few messages to sellers (registered owners) on marketplace resulted in them sending me daily price reduction updates.
Sleepless nights have begun. I'm twisting between SL320 and SL500. Should I just pay additional 2000 euros more and go for the SL500 and go broke or settle with a SL320?
