P0127 IAT SENSOR-B1 (Intake air temperature too high) Rationally incorrect voltage from the sensor is sent to ECM, compared with the voltage signal from engine coolant temperature sensor.
  • Harness or connectors (Intake air temperature sensor circuit is open or shorted)
  • Intake air temperature sensor

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.PRECONDITIONING

If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always perform the following procedure before conducting the next test.

  1. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
  2. Turn ignition switch ON.

>> GO TO 2.

2.PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

With CONSULT


  1. Wait until engine coolant temperature is less than 96В°C (205В°F)

NOTE:

Perform the following steps before engine coolant temperature is above 96В°C (205В°F).

  1. Turn ignition switch ON.
  2. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode of “ENGINE” using CONSULT
  3. Start engine
  4. Hold vehicle speed at more than 70 km/h (43 MPH) for 100 consecutive seconds.

Follow the procedure “With CONSULT” above.

Is 1st trip DTC detected? YES >> Proceed to EC-205, "Diagnosis Procedure".

NO >> INSPECTION END

Diagnosis Procedure

1.CHECK INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR

Check the intake air temperature sensor. Refer to EC-206, "Component Inspection".

Is the inspection result normal? YES >> Check intermittent incident. Refer to GI-39, "Intermittent Incident".

NO >> Replace mass air flow sensor (with intake air temperature sensor). Refer to EM-25, "Exploded View".

Component Inspection

1.CHECK INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR

  1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
  2. Disconnect mass air flow sensor harness connector and reconnect it again.
  3. Turn ignition switch ON.
  4. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode with CONSULT.
  5. Check that the indicated value of “INT/A TEMP SEN” is almost the same as intake air temperature.

Is the inspection result normal? YES >> INSPECTION END

NO >> Replace mass air flow sensor (with intake air temperature sensor). Refer to EM-25, "Exploded View".
