IACV or Idle Air Control Valve if equipped is malfunctioning.

Troubleshooting code PO420

In almost all cases, a P0420 code indicates a problem with 1 or more O2 sensors. They send incorrect emissions information back to the ECM and trigger the Check Engine Light. If the Catalytic Converter is fine (no problems with the engine hesitating or getting a lot of heat from under the car) then it's most likely the O2's.
