The idle air control valve in a 2012 Ford Focus can be found next to the throttle body on the intake for the engine. The idle air control valve has the job of controlling the amount of air that comes into the engine while it sits idle while You are stopped or parked. If You notice that Your vehicle is stalling while it is at idle, or You have trouble starting the vehicle and need to press the gas then there likely is a problem with the valve being stuck open or closed. Usually when there is a problem with the valve You will get a check engine light which will notify You so that You can change out the part.
