Component Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Buick Cascada, 2018 Buick Cascada, and 2017 Buick Cascada. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Multifunction Intake Air Sensor
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B75C Multifunction Intake Air Sensor.
- Test the IAT sensor 1 by varying the sensor temperature while monitoring the sensor resistance. Compare the readings with the Temperature Versus Resistance - Intake Air Temperature Sensor
table for Bosch Sensors. The resistance values should be in range of the table values.
- If not within the specified range
Replace the B75C Multifunction Intake Air Sensor.
- Go to next step: If within the specified range
- If not within the specified range
- All OK.
NOTE:
A thermometer can be used to test the sensor off the vehicle.
Multifunction Intake Air Sensor
- Test the IAT Sensor 2 by varying the sensor temperature while monitoring the air temperature with a thermometer. Compare the readings with the scan tool IAT Sensor 2 parameter. The values should be within 5%.
- If not within the specified range
Replace the B75C Multifunction Intake Air Sensor.
- Go to next step: If within the specified range
- If not within the specified range
- All OK.
Intake Manifold and Air Temperature sensor
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B65 Intake Manifold and Air Temperature sensor.
- Test the IAT sensor 3 by varying the sensor temperature while monitoring the sensor resistance. Compare the readings with the Temperature Versus Resistance - Intake Air Temperature Sensor
appropriate table for the sensor. The resistance values should be in range of the table values.
- If not within the specified range
Replace the B65 Intake Manifold and Air Temperature sensor.
- Go to next step: If within the specified range
- If not within the specified range
- All OK.
NOTE:
A thermometer can be used to test the sensor off the vehicle.
