Default what is that sensor???

Need some h-t knowledge real quick guys. There is a sensor that tells the car to kick up the throttle when you turn the air conditioning on. This keeps the car from idling horribly and from stalling when you take off from a stop. For the life of me I can't remember what this sensor is called. Anyone know?

A/C is a special case, mainly due to the fact that the ECU controls when the A/C can turn on and when it can't.

the ELD is used for electrical loads not parasitic loads. (A/C and power steering) It's located in the under hood fuse box.

my guess, your IACV may not be able to open properly or is blocked by build up of some sort.
