Where is the IDM on a 2001 Ford F 350?

The Idle Air Control (IAC) motor, often mistakenly referred to as the IDM (Ignition Driver Module), on a 2001 Ford F-350 is not a single, easily identifiable component like the IDM itself. The 2001 F-350's IAC motor is integrated into the throttle body.

The Ignition Driver Module (IDM), however, is a separate component. On a 2001 Ford F-350 with a Power Stroke diesel engine, it's typically located on the driver's side fender well, usually near the Power Steering Reservoir. It's a fairly small, rectangular box.

In short:

* IAC (often mistaken for IDM): Integrated into the throttle body.

* IDM (Ignition Driver Module): Driver's side fender well, near the power steering reservoir (for diesel models). The location might vary slightly depending on the specific engine and configuration. A visual inspection or consulting a repair manual specific to your truck's year, engine, and model is recommended for precise location.
