This part is responsible for managing the engine's idle speed by adjusting it based on the current conditions. Typically, idle control valves are motorized and are placed on the vehicle's intake manifold. When the engine is cold, the IAC valve assists in starting it. If it stops working correctly, you'll need to have it replaced, which can cost between $115 and $500 on average.
