Intake Air Temperature Sensor

Sensor is incorporated in airflow sensor assembly inside air filter housing. Disconnect airflow sensor connector. See Fig 1 or Fig 2 .

Measure resistance between terminals No. 6 and 8. Replace airflow sensor assembly if air temperature sensor resistance is not within specification. See INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR RESISTANCE table.

INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR RESISTANCE

Temperature °F (°C)	Ohms
32 (0)	6000
68 (20)	2700
176 (80)	400
