P007C-CHARGE AIR COOLER TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW





For a complete wiring diagram Refer to Diagrams/Electrical.

Theory of Operation


The intake manifold temperature sensor is a variable resistor sensor and is used to measure the temperature of the air entering the intake manifold of the engine. The ECM supplies 5-volts to the intake manifold temperature signal circuit. The ECM monitors the change in voltage caused by changes in the resistance of the sensor to determine the intake manifold temperature. The intake manifold temperature sensor is a combination sensor that also reads pressure. It is located on the intake manifold. The MIL lamp is illuminated immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails. During this time the customer may notice periods of white smoke as well as the fan running more often. The MIL lamp is turned off once the diagnostic runs and passes in 4 consecutive drive cycles.

- When Monitored:
The ECM monitors the change in signal voltage and converts this to a temperature value.

- Set Condition:
The ECM illuminates the MIL light immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails. During this time it uses an estimated value for Inlet Air Temperature. The ECM will turn off the MIL after the diagnostic runs and passes in 4 consecutive drive cycles.







Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview


1. INTAKE AIR TEMP SENSOR OUT OF SPEC
Disconnect the Intake Air Temperature sensor harness connector.

NOTE: Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.

Measure the resistance of the Intake Air Temp sensor.
