Did you do the test with your finger over the port? When the engine is warm and the fast idle valve is working properly, putting your finger over the port will have no effect.
Also when you put the valve back on, are all the o-rings in place? It could be a vacuum leak anywhere. Anything that lets excessive air into the engine will cause the idle speed to increase out of control of the ECU.

After pulling the code, reset the ECU to see whether the same code(s) repeat. Any repeated codes may help you figure out the problem.
