Diagnostic Fault Information
Typical Scan Tool Data
Circuit/System Description
The intake air temperature (IAT) sensor 2 is a variable resistor. The IAT sensor 2 has a signal circuit and a low reference circuit. The IAT sensor measures the temperature of the air at the engine's intake manifold. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5V to the IAT 2 signal circuit, and a ground for the IAT 2 low reference circuit. When the IAT sensor 2 is cold, the sensor resistance is high. When the intake manifold air temperature increases, the sensor resistance decreases. With high sensor resistance, the ECM detects a high voltage on the IAT 2 signal circuit. With lower sensor resistance, the ECM detects a lower voltage on the IAT 2 signal circuit. The ECM continuously monitors the IAT signal voltage for an excessively high or low voltage, or a voltage signal that is not in correlation with the mass air flow/ intake (MAF/IAT) sensor.
Conditions for Running
* The engine run has been in operation for greater than 10 s.
* The engine coolant temperature (ECT) is warmer than -40°C (-40°F).
* The vehicle speed is greater than 1 km/h (1 mph).
* The MAF is less than 512 g/s.
* DTC P0097 and P0098 run continuously within the enabling conditions.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
P0097
The IAT sensor 2 is warmer than 148°C (298°F) for greater than 5 s. This is equal to or less than 0.24 V on the IAT sensor 2 signal circuit as measured by the ECM for P0097.
P0098
The IAT sensor 2 is colder than -39°C (-38°F) for greater than 5 s. This is equal to or greater than 4.86 V on the IAT signal circuit as measured by the ECM for P0098.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets

Circuit/System Verification
Note:
Perform this verification procedure only if the ignition has been OFF for 8 hours or more.
1. Ignition ON, observe the scan tool IAT Sensor, IAT Sensor 2, and ECT Sensor parameters. The readings should be within 15°C (27°F) of each other, and also the ambient temperature.
2. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify that the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the IAT sensor 2.
2. Ignition OFF, all vehicles systems OFF, this may take up to for 2 min, test for less than 5 ohms between the low reference circuit terminal B and ground.
• If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
3. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool IAT sensor 2 parameter is colder than -39°C (-38°F).
• If warmer than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
4. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal A and the low reference circuit terminal B. Verify the scan tool IAT sensor 2 parameter is warmer than 130°C (266°F).
• If colder than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
5. If all circuits test normal, test or replace IAT sensor 2.
Component Testing
Measure and record the resistance of the MAF/IAT sensor and IAT sensor 2 at various ambient temperatures, and then compare those measurements to the Temperature Versus Resistance Temperature Versus Resistance table.
