DESCRIPTION
- The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor, built into the Mass Air Flow (MAF) meter, monitors the intake air temperature. The IAT sensor has a thermistor that varies its resistance depending on the intake air temperature. When the intake air temperature is low, the resistance in the thermistor increases. When the temperature is high, the resistance drops. The variations in resistance are reflected as voltage changes to the ECM terminal (see Fig. 1).
The IAT sensor is connected to the ECM. The 5 V power source voltage in the ECM is applied to the IAT sensor from terminal THA via resistor R.
The resistor R and the IAT sensor are connected in series. When the resistance value of the IAT sensor changes in accordance with changes in the intake air temperature, the voltage at terminal THA also changes. Based on this signal, the ECM increases the fuel injection volume to improve driveability during cold engine operation.
DTC No.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM monitors the sensor voltage and uses this value to calculate the intake air temperature. When the sensor output voltage deviates from the normal operating range, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the IAT sensor and sets a DTC.Example:When the ATF temperature is -40°C (-40°F) or more than 140°C (284°F) and if either condition continues for 0.5 seconds or more, the ECM will set a DTC.This monitor runs 0.5 seconds after the engine switch is turned on (IG).

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- HINT:
- Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was LEAN or RICH, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
| 1.READ DATA LIST (INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE) |
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 / Primary / Intake Air.
Read the values.
- Standard:
- Same value as the actual IAT.
