DESCRIPTION

The intake air temperature sensor is built into the mass air flow meter and senses the intake air temperature.


Dtc P0110  Intake Air Temperature Circuit. 2AD-FHV ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20

A thermistor built in the sensor changes its resistance value according to the intake air temperature.


The lower the intake air temperature, the greater the thermistor resistance value. The higher the intake air temperature, the lower the thermistor resistance value (see figure 1).


The intake air temperature sensor is connected to the ECM.


The 5 V power source voltage in the ECM is applied to the intake air temperature sensor from terminal THA (THAR) via resistor R.


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 (THAR) also changes. Based on this signal, the ECM increases the fuel injection volume to improve driveability with a cold engine.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

  • NOTICE:
  • After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration and initialization .
  • HINT:
  • If DTCs relating to different systems are output, and they share terminal E2 as their ground, check this ground circuit first.
1.READ VALUE OF INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR

Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

Turn the engine switch ON (IG) and turn the intelligent tester ON.

Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Intake Air.

Read the value.

  • OK:
  • Same value as the actual air temperature.
  • Result:
  • Temperature DisplayedProceed to
    -40°C (-40°F)A
    140°C (284°F) or moreB
    OK (same as air temperature near intake manifold)C
  • HINT:
If there is an open circuit, the intelligent tester indicates -40°C (-40°F).
If there is a short circuit, the intelligent tester indicates 140°C (284°F) or more.
