Diagnostic Procedure

CAUTION: To prevent damage to scan tool (MB991502), always turn the ignition off before connecting or disconnecting the scan tool.
  1. Connect scan tool (MB991502) to the data link connector. Turn the ignition on. Set the scan tool to data reading mode for item 13, Intake Air Temperature Sensor. The intake air temperature and temperature shown with the scan tool should approximately match. Turn the ignition off. If the sensor is operating properly, it can be assumed this malfunction is intermittent, see INTERMITTENT DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES  . If the sensor is malfunctioning, go to the next step.
  2. Check connector B-14 at the intake air temperature sensor for damage. If the connector is in good condition, go to the next step. If the connector is damaged, repair or replace it and proceed to step  6 .
  3. Disconnect the intake air temperature sensor connector B-14. Measure the resistance between intake air temperature sensor side connector terminal No. 5 and 6. There should be continuity: 300-1000 ohm. If the resistance is normal, go to the next step. If the resistance is abnormal, replace the volume air flow sensor and proceed to step  6 .
  4. Check for short circuit to ground between intake air temperature sensor connector B-14 and ECM connector C-60 (M/T) or PCM connector C-54 (A/T). If the harness wire is in good condition, go to the next step. If the harness wire is damaged, repair it and proceed to step  6 .
  5. Check connector C-60 at ECM (M/T) or connector C-54 at PCM (A/T) for damage. If the connector is in good condition, replace the ECM or PCM and go to the next step. If the connector is damaged, repair or replace it and go to the next step.
  6. Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern, refer to OTHER MONITOR  . Check the diagnostic trouble codes. If DTC P0112 is output, retry the troubleshooting. If the DTC is absent, the inspection is complete.
