DESCRIPTION
The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor, mounted on the Mass Air Flow (MAF) meter, monitors the IAT.
The IAT sensor has a built-in thermistor with a resistance that varies according to the temperature of the
intake air. When the IAT becomes low, the resistance of the thermistor increases. When the temperature
becomes high, the resistance drops. These variations in resistance are transmitted to the ECM as voltage
changes (see Fig. 1).
The IAT sensor is powered by a 5 V supply from the THA terminal of the ECM, via resistor R.
Resistor R and the IAT sensor are connected in series. When the resistance value of the IAT sensor
changes according to changes in the IAT, the voltage at terminal THA also varies. Based on this signal,
the ECM increases the fuel injection volume when the engine is cold to improve driveability.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM performs OBD II monitoring based on the values from the intake air temperature sensor. If there
is no change in the sensor value, the ECM will not be able to perform OBD II monitoring or will
misdiagnose that there is a malfunction in the sensor. The ECM detects the stuck intake air temperature
sensor value by performing monitoring after the ignition switch is turned off or the ignition is started (short
soak or long soak).

DESCRIPTION
The ECM calculates the difference between the readings of the coolant temperature sensor and intake air
temperature sensor. If the difference is greater than 20
C (68F), the ECM will judge this as a malfunction
and will set this DTC.
HINT:
• Waiting is required to prevent the temperature of the engine from affecting the readings. If the engine
has been operated recently, it will not be possible to accurately compare the readings.
• For diagnosis, in order to duplicate the detection conditions of the DTC, it is necessary to park the
vehicle for 7 hours. Parking the vehicle for 7 hours ensures that the actual temperature of the ECT and
IAT are very similar. When the vehicle has been parked for less than 7 hours, differences in the
readings may exist, this does not necessarily indicate a fault.
