DTC P0110 Intake Air Temperature Circuit Malfunction |
DESCRIPTION
- The intake air temperature sensor, mounted on the mass air flow meter, monitors the intake air temperature. The intake air temperature sensor has a built-in thermistor with a resistance that varies according to the temperature of the intake air. When the intake air temperature 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 intake air temperature sensor is powered by a 5 V supply from the THA terminal of the ECM, via resistor R.
Resistor R and the intake air temperature sensor are connected in series. When the resistance value of the intake air temperature sensor changes, the voltage at terminal THA varies accordingly. Based on this signal, the ECM increases the fuel injection volume when the engine is cold to improve driveability.- УКАЗАНИЕ:
- When the intake air temperature sensor output is outside the normal range, the ECM determines this as a malfunction.
DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
P0110 | Condition (a) or (b) continues for 2.0 seconds or more: (a) Intake air temperature sensor output is less than -40°C (-40°F) (The MIL is illuminated and a DTC is set when the same malfunction is detected on 2 consecutive trips*) (b) Intake air temperature sensor output is more than 135°C (275°F) (The MIL is illuminated and a DTC is set when the same malfunction is detected on 2 consecutive trips*) *: One trip is counted when the ignition switch is turned from off to the ON position and back to off |
|
- УКАЗАНИЕ:
- When DTC P0110 is set, check the intake air temperature by selecting the following menu items on an intelligent tester: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Intake Air.
- DTC P0110 is set when the engine idles for approximately 15 seconds.
Temperature Displayed | Malfunction |
-40°C (-40°F) | Open circuit |
140°C (284°F) or higher | Short circuit |

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- УКАЗАНИЕ:
- Read freeze frame data using an intelligent tester. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction.
