Sensors and Actua<strong>to</strong>rsEmployed in OBD <strong>II</strong><strong>Diagnostics</strong>Intake air temperature sensor Principle of operation:The sensor is similar in construction <strong>to</strong> the coolant temperature sensor. It is installedin the air intake manifold upstream of the air flow meter. The temperature vsvoltage across the thermister is not completely linear.<strong>Diagnostics</strong>: The electrical characteristics of the thermister may deteriorate withtime. The reference voltage, and the series resister in the circuit are critical sourcesof variation from correct temperature. The relation between resistance andtemperature is not linear in thermister. Silicon temperature sensors provide amore linear output signal and are expected <strong>to</strong> replace thermister.OBD <strong>II</strong> DTCs : There is one failure mode. It is intake air temperaturenot correct. OBD <strong>II</strong> DTC s are 110-114.
