IAC Help?"?"

On my Explorer I just did the test for the IAC valve and all but one part worked, it didn't even respond when i tried to test it from the teminal to the shell. But from terminal to Teminal it was perfect. could this mean a bad IAC valve??

Assume you are making resistance measurments. It shouldn't read anything from either terminal to the shell. If you should ever try to operate this on a bench with a battery, remember it has an internal diode and is polarity sensitive. Putting the voltage on backeards will destroy it. Electrical problems with the IAC are very rare. Usually the just stick.
