DTC P0127: Intake Air Temperature Too High: Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Nissan Maxima and 2002 Infiniti I35. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor (part of mass airflow sensor) detects intake air temperature and transmits a signal to the ECM. The temperature sensing unit uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. Electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases in response to temperature increase.
