A-Premium Idle Air Control Valve for Dodge Dakota & Jeep 4-Pin Plug — Direct Replacement, 4-Terminal

The A-Premium Fuel Injection Idle Air Control Valve with a 4-pin plug is a direct-replacement idle air control unit engineered to restore steady idle and reliable throttle response on compatible Dodge Dakota and Jeep XJ/ZJ/TJ models.

This replacement idle air control (IAC) valve is built to match factory fitment and function for a range of late‑1990s and early‑2000s Dodge and Jeep vehicles. It regulates the airflow that bypasses the throttle plate when the throttle is closed, helping the engine maintain stable idle speed under different loads and operating conditions. The part ships in a protective box with mounting hardware included and uses a 4‑blade terminal connector for straightforward plug‑and‑play installation.
