Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
Always perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle .
P0112 or P1112
- Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
- Disconnect the MAF/IAT sensor. Observe the IAT sensor with a scan tool for -36°C (-33°F).
- If more than -36°C (-33°F), then test the signal circuit of the IAT sensor for a short to ground or a short to the IAT low reference circuit and repair as necessary. If all circuits test normal, replace the control module.
- If less than -36°C (-33°F), replace the MAF/IAT sensor.
- If IAT signal circuit tests OK, replace the control module.
P0113 or P1111
- Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
- Disconnect the MAF/IAT sensor.
- Measure for 4.9-5.2 volts between the IAT sensor signal circuit and a good ground with a DMM.
- If the voltage is less than 4.9 volts, test the IAT sensor signal circuit for high resistance or an open circuit.
- If the voltage is more than 5.2 volts, test the IAT sensor signal circuit for a short to voltage, or any 5-volt reference.
- If the IAT sensor signal circuit tests normal, and the voltage is still not within the proper range, then replace the control module.
- Turn OFF the ignition, and all electrical accessories. Allow sufficient time for all of the control modules to power down before taking a resistance measurement.
- Measure for less than 5 ohms of resistance between the IAT low reference circuit and a good ground.
- If the resistance is more than 5 ohms, test the low reference circuit for high resistance or an open circuit. If the circuit tests normal, replace the control module.
- If all circuits test normal, then replace the IAT sensor.
IMPORTANT:
The sensor may be damaged if the circuit is shorted to a voltage source.
