There's been a lot of discussion on that. Do a search using "IAC" and you should get a lot of threads to look at.

They usually get gunked with stuff, mine did a while back. Simply take the TB off and all the conectors and ge some carb/TB cleaner. It helped me ALOT

they also will start to get sticky. when they do you can try lubricating the shaft on the motor but that may not work for long... a new one is about $65 bux at napa.

Go here https://dodgeforum.com/m_455618/tm.htm for more info. Don't just have the dealer fix it - they wanted $185 to replace the IAC - I fixed it with half a can of carb cleaner and 15 minutes of my time.......
