including the electrical connections.
The AIC (Automatic Idle Control Valve) is a valve which allows air to bypass the throttle plate (I think) to maintain steady idle and prevent stalling when the throttle is suddenly closed. It is actuated by a solenoid. The clearances inside are very small and it tends to get gunked up over time.
If you do a search of AIC cleaning on this BB you will find several good procedures. It is very easy and takes no more than 30 minutes, even if you are all thumbs as I am.
