If you have a 2008 Ford Explorer and need to locate the idle air control valve, don't waste your time searching for it. This specific model doesn't have a separate valve as it is built into the throttle body. In older versions, the valve can be found beside the throttle body at the intake manifold. If you need to replace this component, it could range in price from $58 to $99 for the parts and $87 to $185 for the labor.
The 2008 Ford Explorer is designed with a throttle body system that integrates the idle air control function, eliminating the need for a separate valve.
