Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2003 Mazda Tribute, 2003 Mazda Protege5, 2003 Mazda Protege, 2003 Mazda MX-5 Miata, and 2003 Mazda MPV. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The IAT sensor inputs an air temperature signal to the PCM. The IAT sensor resistance reading changes in response to air temperature. The IAT sensor resistance reading decreases as air temperature increases. For the IAT sensor location, see IAT SENSOR LOCATIONS table.
