Pinpoint Test DU: Intake Air Temperature 2 (IAT2) Sensor: Introduction
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 31 other vehicles, including the 2009 Mercury Mountaineer, 2009 Mercury Milan, 2009 Mercury Mariner, 2009 Mercury Grand Marquis, and 2009 Lincoln Town Car. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- intake air temperature 2 (IAT2) sensor (12A697)
- harness circuits: IAT2 and SIGRTN
- powertrain control module (PCM) (12A650)
Voltage values calculated for VREF = 5 volts. These values can vary by 15% due to sensor and VREF variations.
