Where is the idle control valve on a ford ka?

The Ford Ka's idle control valve (IACV) location varies slightly depending on the engine and year. It's generally found on the throttle body.

To be certain, you'll need to:

1. Identify your Ford Ka's engine: This information is usually found on your vehicle's registration documents or a sticker in the engine bay.

2. Consult a repair manual specific to your year and engine: A Haynes or Chilton manual will show you a diagram of the engine and pinpoint the IACV's location. Online resources like forums dedicated to Ford Ka's can also be helpful, but always double-check against a reputable manual.

Without knowing the exact year and engine code, providing a precise location is impossible. However, start by looking closely at the throttle body; the IACV is usually a small, cylindrical component mounted directly on or very near it.
