The wires end to end from the sensor to the pcm and see which wire it is.Use low scale resistance setting on your meter.

Iam sure you dont have a scan tool to see iac duty so i would leave that sure around.I posted a pic of the idle air control valve so i would start by removing it and cleaning it.Also clean the ports etc.

Thank you, Now I need to know where the idle air ajusting screw is because the trouble tree is wanting me to remove that screw and clean the port it screws into.

For this model there are no idle adjust screw as the idle speed is PCM controlled.
