Description
The intake air temperature sensor is built-into the mass air flow sensor (1). The sensor detects intake air temperature and transmits a signal to the ECM.
The temperature sensing unit uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. Electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases in response to the rise in temperature.
<Reference data>
*: These data are reference values and are measured between ECM terminals 50 (Intake air temperature sensor) and 56 (Sensor ground).

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1.PRECONDITIONING
If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always perform the following before conducting the next test.
TESTING CONDITION: This test may be conducted with the drive wheels lifted in the shop or by driving the vehicle. If a road test is expected to be easier, it is unnecessary to lift the vehicle.
2.PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
With CONSULT
NOTE: Perform the following steps before engine coolant temperature is above 90C (194F).
With GST
Follow the procedure "With CONSULT" above.
Diagnosis Procedure
1.CHECK GROUND CONNECTION

Fuel injector
Description
The fuel injector is a small, precise solenoid valve. When the ECM
supplies a ground to the fuel injector circuit, the coil in the fuel injector
is energized. The energized coil pulls the ball valve back and
allows fuel to flow via the fuel injector into the intake manifold. T ...
