2UZ-FE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM: SFI SYSTEM: P0110: Intake Air Temperature Circuit Malfunction
DTC P0110 - Intake Air Temperature Circuit Malfunction
DTC P0112 - Intake Air Temperature Circuit Low Input
DTC P0113 - Intake Air Temperature Circuit High Input
DESCRIPTION
- The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor, mounted on the Mass Air Flow (MAF) meter, monitors the IAT. The IAT sensor has a built-in thermistor with a resistance that varies according to the temperature of the intake air. When the IAT is low, the resistance of the thermistor increases. When the temperature is high, the resistance drops. These variations in resistance are transmitted to the ECM as voltage changes (see Fig. 1).
- The IAT sensor is powered by a 5 V supply from the THA terminal of the ECM, via resistor R.
- Resistor R and the IAT sensor are connected in series. When the resistance value of the IAT sensor changes, according to changes in the IAT, the voltage at terminal THA also varies. Based on this signal, the ECM increases the fuel injection volume when the engine is cold to improve driveability.
HINT: When any of DTCs P0110, P0112 and P0113 are set, the ECM enters fail-safe mode. During fail-safe mode, the IAT is estimated to be 20°C (68°F) by the ECM. Fail-safe mode continues until a pass condition is detected.
HINT: When any of these DTCs are set, check the IAT by entering the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / All Data / Intake Air.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM monitors the sensor voltage and uses this value to calculate the IAT. When the sensor output voltage deviates from the normal operating range, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the IAT sensor and sets a DTC.
Example:
If the sensor output voltage is more than 4.91 V for 0.5 seconds or more, the ECM determines that there is an open in the IAT sensor circuit, and sets DTC P0113. Conversely, if the output voltage is less than 0.18 V for 0.5 seconds or more, the ECM determines that there is a short in the sensor circuit, and sets DTC P0112.
If the malfunction is not repaired successfully, a DTC is set 0.5 seconds after the engine is next started.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT: Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
PROCEDURE
1. READ OUTPUT DTC
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the Techstream ON.
(c) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
(d) Read DTCs.
Result
C -- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (CHECK FOR OPEN IN WIRE HARNESS)
B -- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (CHECK FOR SHORT IN WIRE HARNESS)
A -- Continue to next step.
2. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE)
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the Techstream ON.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / All Data / Intake Air.
(e) Read the value displayed on the Techstream.
Standard:
Same as actual Intake Air Temperature (IAT).
Result
HINT:
- If there is an open circuit, the Techstream indicates -40°C (-40°F).
- If there is a short circuit, the Techstream indicates 140°C (284°F) or higher.
C -- CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
B -- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (CHECK FOR SHORT IN WIRE HARNESS)
A -- Continue to next step.
3. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (CHECK FOR OPEN IN WIRE HARNESS)
(a) Disconnect the D7 MAF meter connector.
(b) Connect terminals 4 (THA) and 5 (E2) of the MAF meter wire harness side connector.
(c) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(e) Turn the Techstream ON.
(f) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / All Data / Intake Air.
(g) Read the value displayed on the Techstream.
Standard value:
140°C (284°F) or higher
