Default HELP! My car is undrivable

My idle was going crazy form 700rpm to 35000rpm no C.E.L. I did a seach and I needed to clean IAC. I clean it then I got a C.E.L. codes 14 (defective IAC or malfuntion in IAC system) for a week and now I'm getting a code 45 (too rich condition). Now it's reving to 4500rpm and it will take a sec or two to stop.

What should I do and how do I clean my IAC correctly ?

Use brake or cabeurator cleaner to clean the IACV screens.

Make sure the plug is also connected with it.

Give us more details on motor/ecu and other mods as well.

Did you completely remove the IACV? If you did there was the two coolant lines on the bottom of the sensor which probably drained off. Ive heard of people having erattic idle due to small air bubbles stuck in their coolant lines. You might want to try to bleed out your coolant system.

That may be it because the old line were balloned and I replaced them.
I have a D16Y7
