Intake Air Temperature Sensor: Description and Operation
PURPOSE
The intake air temperature sensor (B17/7) measures incoming ambient air temperature. The information is used to calculate necessary adjustments
to the air/fuel ratio and ignition timing. Low ambient air temperatures will tend to enrichen air/fuel mixtures and high ambient temperatures will
tend to retard ignition timing.
Intake Air Temperature Sensor (B17/7) Location
LOCATION
The intake air temperature sensor is located in the intake tube at the air filter housing.
SIGNAL
This signal is used by the LH control unit and transmitted via the controller area network (CAN) to the EZK/LKR control unit.
