DTC P0110 Intake Air Temp. Circuit Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The intake air temperature sensor is built into the air flow meter
and senses the intake air temperature.
A thermistor built in the sensor changes the resistance value
according to the intake air temperature. The lower the intake air
temperature, the greater the thermistor resistance value, and
the higher the intake air temperature, the lower the thermistor
resistance value (See fig.1).
The intake air temperature sensor is connected to the ECM
(See next page). The 5 V power source voltage in the ECM is
applied to the intake air temperature sensor from the terminal
THA via a resistor R.
That is, the resistor R and the intake air temperature sensor are
connected in series. When the resistance value of the intake air
temperature sensor changes in accordance with changes in the
intake air temperature, the potential at terminal THA also
changes. Based on this signal, the ECM increases the fuel in-
jection volume to improve driveability during cold engine opera-
tion.
If the ECM detects the DTC ”P0110”, it operates the fail safe
function in which the intake air temperature is assumed to be
20 °C (68 °F).

DTC P0120 Throttle/Pedal Position Sensor/Switch ”A”
Circuit Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The throttle position sensor is mounted in the throttle body and
detects the throttle valve opening angle.
When the throttle valve is fully closed, the IDL contacts in the
throttle position sensor are on, so the voltage at the terminal IDL
of the ECM becomes 0 V. At this time, a voltage of approximate-
ly 0.3 − 0.8 V is applied to terminal VTA of the ECM. When the
throttle valve is opened, the IDL contacts go off and thus the
power source voltage of approximately 12 V in the ECM is ap-
plied to the terminal IDL of the ECM. The voltage applied to the
terminal VTA of the ECM increases in proportion to the opening
angle of the throttle valve and becomes approximately 3.2 − 4.9
V when the throttle valve is fully opened. The ECM judges the
vehicle driving conditions from these signals input from termi-
nals VTA and IDL, and uses them as one of the conditions for
deciding the air− fuel ratio correction, power increase correction
and fuel −cut control etc.
