• Airflow control issues related to a worn idle air control valve

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the oval connector and 4-terminal layout before installation. Clean the throttle body and mating surface, then install the included O-ring to help maintain a proper seal. Confirm the vehicle application against the listed Dodge Ram 2500 and Dodge Ram 3500 fitment before replacing the original valve.
