Where is the idle adjustment on a 2002 Chevy Trailblazer?

The 2002 Chevy Trailblazer doesn't have a manually adjustable idle speed screw like older carbureted vehicles. The idle speed is controlled electronically by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). There's no readily accessible idle adjustment screw you can turn.

If your Trailblazer is idling too high or too low, the problem is likely due to a fault within the engine's electronic control system, not something you can adjust manually. You should take it to a mechanic or use a professional-grade OBD-II scanner to diagnose the issue. Possible causes include:

* Dirty or faulty throttle body: This is a common cause of idle problems.

* Faulty IAC (Idle Air Control) valve: This valve regulates air flow at idle.

* Vacuum leaks: A leak in the intake system can affect the idle.

* Problems with the PCM itself: Less common, but possible.

* Faulty sensor: Various sensors (MAF, TPS, etc.) can impact idle.

Trying to adjust anything manually in the throttle body area without proper understanding could damage the engine. Professional diagnosis is recommended.
