Default 99 civic ex idle air control engine light on

hey cl, well today my 99 ex CEL light came on saying it was my Idle air control valve maulfunction. so i just cleaned all my hoses, and checked my plugs were all good and they where. so i took the full throttle body and IAC off my 96 ex that was perfect and put it on the 99. engine light still comes on.

what can it be?

also i have 2broken valve cover bolts that snaped. i know that will be a vacum leak but would it trip the CEL ? thanks

The valve cover bolts won't cause a vacuum leak. Did you clear the code to see if it comes back?
