It's normal for it to come on when you just turn the key to II and don't start the car. It means that the alternator is not on and you're running off the battery. If it stays on after you start the car, though, that's where you've got a problem. Check the negative terminal on the battery for corrosion, etc., and if anything, run a new ground strap to the chassis.

I was able to locate the problem, the hose that connet the trottle body to the air filter is busted at the bottom, I went to the auto store to replace, they told me that I have to order it from the dealer or get from the junk yard. I want to make sure that this is my problem, so I crazy gule the hose and duck tape it. and I drove the car around this weekend, and i don;t experience the problem anymore. I really appreciate your consern and help. May god bless you. One more question should I change the hose or leave it crazygule and ducktape.

IAC valve... I say screw it and leave it glued, haha. Knowing myself, I'd have used silicone instead of crazy glue, just so it's more pliable. If you happen upon a new hose while junkyard hoping, then by all means get the new one but for now, what you've done should hold up.
