Component Inspection

INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR CHECK

1. Disconnect the volume air flow sensor connectors.

2. Measure resistance between terminals 5 and 6.

Standard value:
2.3 - 3.0 kOhm [at 20 °C (68 °F)]
0.30 - 0.42 kOhm [at 80°C (176 °F)

If not within specifications, replace the volume air flow sensor.

3. Measure resistance while heating the sensor using a hair dryer.

Normal condition:

4. If resistance does not decrease as heat increases, replace the volume air flow sensor assembly.
