Problem Resetting IAC????

How long should it take until you no longer feel the IAC moving before you unplug? I waited like 2 minutes and I can still feel it clicking.

It's a brand new IAC but I've been messing with it all day trying to fix my idle problem...

The IAC cant and doesnt have to be reset. The ecm automatically resets the IAC each time the engine is shut down.

The IAC will click endlessly. Just wait the minute and unplug it. That will be fully closed.

Oops... guess I misunderstood the question... What where you trying to do origionally? Reset the min idle? The IAC will actually extend pretty fast. It seems like it only takes a couple of seconds for it to seat and start buzzing/clicking.
