Unhappy Need help with wiring layout

I Keep getting the trouble code P1506. According tto the OBDII list on this site, the IAC is bad or the IAC circuit is going to ground. Replaced the IAC and made no difference. Now need to know the pin numbers at the computer to check the wiring. It's a 1998 2 WD 2.5 cyl four banger with A/C. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Powertrain Control Module (PCM), 2.5L


Pin 36 (T/LB) = Mass Air Flow Sensor Return

Pin 88 (LB/R) = Mass Air Flow Sensor Input

IAC Control

Ford Says;

P1506 - Idle Air Control (IAC) Overspeed Error

This DTC is set when the PCM detects engine idle speed that is greater than the desired rpm.

Possible troubles

IAC circuit short to GND
Damaged IAC valve
IAC valve stuck open
Vacuum leaks
Failed EVAP system
Damaged PCM

Test

Disconnect IAC valve and look for little or no change in engine rpm as an indication of a stuck or damaged valve.

PCM (2.5L) Pin 83 White/Light Blue
Other side of IAC goes to red +12vdc.

Dave

Sorry about the info on the MAF, must have been daydreaming.

My '98 Ford Manual says the same thing that Dave posted:

PCM (2.5L)

Pin 83 White/Light Blue

Other side of IAC goes to Red +12v
