Why does my Chevy Tahoe have a high voltage reading?
Just a note to those with electrical issues…an item USING power cant draw more VOLTAGE, it can draw more CURRENT only. The alternator responds by supplying more current, if it cant keep up, the voltage DROPS. So a higher voltage would trace to the charging system some how.

Why does my car idle at high idle?
If this tube becomes loose or broken it can leak un-metered air into the engine effectively causing an unbalance (via the mass air flow MAF sensor) in the computer system which can produce fast or slow idle.
When to remove an idle air control valve?
Because of the nature of this valve (large air volume processed) it should be serviced when a tune up is performed to remove “coking” which will hinder the valve’s performance. To perform a rough check of the idle air control, remove the valve while reconnecting the wiring harness.
How can I check the idle air control?

Why is my idle control not working on my car?
If the idle has not changed at all, it’s likely because your idle control motor has not been functioning.
