IAT
Scan Tool Range
-40°C to
151°C, -40°F to 304°F. The
PCM converts the resistance of the
intake air temperature sensor to degrees. The PCM uses Intake Air Temperature (
IAT) to adjust fuel delivery and spark timing according to incoming air density. IAT is also compared to ECT at startup to identify cold starts for the
HO2S heater and the
[1][2]EVAP diagnostics.
