Test 13: Air Temperature Sensor

  1. Check electrical connections on the sensor. Use procedures in BMW TEST KIT, L-JETRONIC PROCEDURES BROCHURE, Test 4 to check Air Temperature Sensor values. If values are incorrect, remove connector from sensor and attach ohmmeter. Check resistance between terminals 22 and 6 and compare with table. See AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR RESISTANCE SPECIFICATIONS  table.
  2. If resistance values are correct, trace sensor circuit and repair wiring. If values are incorrect, replace Air Flow Sensor.
