Today I was sitting in traffic in my LC with the air con on and I thought to myself, 500 rpm is a bit low for idle So I turned the AC off and it went back up to the usual 600rpm so this means that the idle up function does not work any more...
I checked the idle up actuator and it is moving but not far enough. There is plenty of suction in the vacuum line so no problems there. One thing that concerns me is that it used to work fine and the actuator is solid. I have the double actuator with power steering idle up which does not work, and if I push the actuator piston further the engine reaches what sounds like the correct rpm. Seeing as the power steering idle up does not work (I think its wired up correctly) and now the AC idle up could it be the actuator or does it just need adjusting? Is it possible that the throttle linkage is not in the same place as it used to be ie the joints are wearing?
Really confused by this one as I cant see why I would need to adjust it if the actuator and bracket have clearly not moved
Also does anyone have PS idle up that actually works? Would be useful to have a full vacuum pipe diagram, the best one I can find is on ToyoDIY and its not clear where the top pipe on the power steering idle up side of the actuator goes...
