INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE (IAT) SENSOR CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION[AJ (3.0L Duratec)]
id0140a1178100
• Built into the MAF sensor.
• The IAT sensor is a thermistor type in which the resistance changes according to the intake air temperature.
• As shown in the graph, the resistance decreases if the intake air temperature increases and conversely increases if the intake air temperature decreases.
