Turbocharger Intake Pressure And Temperature (TCIPT) Sensor

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 31 other vehicles, including the 2015 Lincoln Navigator, 2015 Lincoln MKZ, 2015 Lincoln MKX, 2015 Lincoln MKT, and 2015 Lincoln MKS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The TCIPT sensor is located in the intake air tube between the air filter assembly and the turbocharger. The TCIPT sensor measures the turbocharger intake pressure and temperature. The PCM uses the information from the TCIPT sensor to determine if the airflow to the turbocharger is being restricted by a clogged air filter or other debris. An IAT sensor is integrated with the TCIPT sensor.
