Hello all and Happy Holidays, On my 95 disco I got a fault code 48 which indicates a stepper motor malfunction. Before swapping it out I would like to try and clean it as recommended in previous posts. Where's it located and whats the best method to clean? Thanks for the help, Drew |

Drew - it is on the back left side of the intake manifold plenum (upper aluminum casting). There is a 4-wire electrical connector going to it. Unclip that and then unscrew the IAC motor - just clean with brake cleaner or carb cleaner. Bill |

Andrew, I was passively reading that the screw has to be set at a certain distance if not you'll have other minor problems with it. I read that you have to keep it 2 1/2 turn counter clock wise from the base after you screwed it on. Don't take my word for it but inquire around to be sure. I read it from "http://ourworld.compuserve.com" go to fuel injection problems" then go to and read #3. good luck. |
