idle air control valve

how do i fix this, my car has been idling diferently and also it won't come back down fast either, it likes to kind of get stuck at like 1500 or 2500 rpms and that's not cool so is it a sensor i need to replace or what?

Some people had their ECUs replaced and that helped...some used the air idle procedure and it worked for them.
