If all he did was reset the CEL then he did nothing that you couldn't have done by pulling the ECM fuse or disconnecting the battery for a few minutes. I doubt that the ECM software is made by Micro$oft, so don't expect resetting the CEL to miraculously make things all better.

As far as the codes that correspond to the IAC these are three of them;

P0505 - Idle Control System Malfunction

P0506 - IAC System RPM Low

P0507 - IAC System RPM High
