Location of ICV on side of throttlebody

Hi guys, I own a 99 C2. I'm planning on removing the idle control valve (ICV) on the side of the throttlebody so I can clean it. Could anyone tell me where this is, if possible to explain through typing? I've inserted a picture of the engine below for reference if it makes it easier to explain. Thanks!

It is the top, larger of the 2 switches on the left side of the throttlebody. Disconnect the cable from the back and remove the 2 screws (careful with gasket). Reuse gasket when reinstalling. You can see the Bosch label on the switch in your picture, right in the center below the fan.
