DTC P007B: Charge Air Cooler Temperature Sensor Circuit Range/Performance (Bank 1)

P007B - CHARGE AIR COOLER TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT RANGE/PERFORMANCE (BANK 1)

Description:  The powertrain control module (PCM) continuously monitors this sensor for concerns. This DTC sets when the CAC_T PID does not correlate with the IAT or the IAT2 PIDs at ignition ON. It will also set if the IAT PID reading is greater than a maximum calibrated value while driving.
Possible Causes: 
  • Damaged turbocharger boost pressure (TCBP)/charge air cooler temperature (CACT) sensor
  • Contaminated or blocked TCBP/CACT sensor
  • Slow responding TCBP/CACT sensor
Diagnostic Aids:  Check temperature values while engine is at ambient temperature, cold soak the engine for a minimum of 6 hours if necessary.
Check airflow through charge air cooler (CAC), remove debris if necessary.
The TCBP/CACT sensor is a dual function pressure and temperature sensor located on the intake air tube between the CAC and the throttle body.
