Non-California Models

DESCRIPTION
The intake air temperature sensor detects intake air temperature and transmits a signal to the ECM.
The temperature sensing unit uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. Electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases in response to the temperature rise. This sensor is not used to control the engine system. It is used only for the on-board diagnosis.




DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE (For California models)
Procedure for malfunction A
WITH CONSULT
1. Turn ignition switch "ON".
2. Select "DATA MONITOR" mode with CONSULT.
3. Wait at least 5 seconds.

OR

WITH GST
1. Turn ignition switch "ON" and wait at least 5 seconds.
2. Select MODE 3 with GST.

OR

WITH NO TOOLS
1. Turn ignition switch "ON" and wait at least 5 seconds.
2. Turn ignition switch "OFF", wait at least 5 seconds and then turn "ON".
3. Perform diagnostic test mode II (Self-diagnostic results) with ECM.

Procedure for malfunction B
WITH CONSULT
1. Lift up vehicle and open engine hood.
2. Wait until engine coolant temperature is less than 90°C (194°F).
(a) Turn ignition switch "ON".




(b) Select "DATA MONITOR" mode with CONSULT.
(c) Check the engine coolant temperature.
(d) If the engine coolant temperature is not less than 9O°C (194°F), turn ignition switch "OFF" and cool down engine.
- Perform the following steps before engine coolant temperature is above 9O°C (194°F).
3. Turn ignition switch "ON".
4. Select "DATA MONITOR" mode with CONSULT.
5. Start engine.
6. Shift selector lever to "D" position.
7. Hold vehicle speed at 70 to 80 km/h (43 to 50 MPH) for 2 minutes.

OR

WITH GST
1. Lift up vehicle and open engine hood.




2. Wait until engine coolant temperature is less than 9O°C (194°F).
(a) Turn ignition switch "ON".
(b) Select MODE 1 with GST.
(c) Check the engine coolant temperature.
(d) If the engine coolant temperature is not less than 9O°C (194°F), turn ignition switch "OFF" and cool down engine.
- Perform the following steps before engine coolant temperature is above 9O°C (194°F).
3. Start engine.
4. Shift selector lever to "D" position.
5. Hold vehicle speed at 70 to 80 km/h (43 to 50 MPH) for 2 minutes.
6. Select MODE 3 with GST.

OR

WITH NO TOOLS
1. Lift up vehicle and open engine hood.
2. Wait until engine coolant temperature is less than 90°C (194°F).
(a) Turn ignition switch "ON".




(b) Check voltage between ECM terminal (51) and ground.

Voltage: More than 1.0 (V)

- If the voltage is not more than 1.0V, turn ignition switch "OFF" and cool down engine.
- Perform the following steps before the voltage is below 1 .0V.
3. Start engine.
4. Shift selector lever to "D" position.
5. Hold vehicle speed at 70 to 80 km/h (43 to 50 MPH) for 2 minutes.
6. Turn ignition switch "OFF", wait at least 5 seconds and then turn "ON".
7. Perform diagnostic test mode II (Self-diagnostic results) with ECM.
