My mind says Idle Stabilizer Control Unit.

Search the archives for ISCU... there is ample info on this rather complex
and pricey system.

The Idle Stabilizer Valve (ISV) is also involved, and often one of the parts
fails and kills the other.  Be careful if replacing, as you may find that
the new replacement gets a burnt out  transistor if the other part was bad.

good luck!
