Intake Air Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation

The Intake Air Temperature sensor (IAT sensor):

-

changes resistance in response to intake air temperature.

-

decreases resistance as the surrounding air temperature increases, providing a signal to the PCM indicating temperature of the incoming intake air.
