My pals 05 camry is idling low at around 300 rpms. Itll eventually die after fluctuating for a few seconds. He claims this sensor is clicking as well. And only recently started when the fluctuating idle began. What is this sensor? Thanks for the help!

I have no idea what you are trying to describe. You need to at least post a picture. Don't forget the engine size of the car with that.

OK, I see an overall picture of the intake box and immediate area but I still don't know what you are trying to describe.
