Additional Information

•

The MAF sensor circuit DTCs is a Type B DTC. Refer to 1.4 Diagnostic Trouble Codes in this Section, for action
taken when a Type B DTC sets and conditions for clearing Type B DTC.

•

Refer to 6C1-1 Engine Management – V6 – General Information for details of the MAF sensor operation.

•

For an intermittent fault condition, refer to 5.2

Intermittent Fault Conditions in this Section.

•

Inspect the MAF sensor for an incorrectly routed harness or if the harness is too close to the following:

−

ignition coil,

−

solenoids,

−

relays, and

−

motors.

•

A low minimum air rate may cause this DTC to set during deceleration. Inspect for the following conditions:

−

a plugged or a collapsed intake air duct, or a dirty air filter element,

−

objects that block the MAF sensor air inlet screen, and

−

sticking or dirty throttle plate or throttle bore.

•

Any un-metered air that enters the engine may cause this DTC to set. Inspect for vacuum leaks in the following:

−

intake manifold,

−

throttle body,

−

barometric pressure (BARO) sensor seal,

−

EVAP canister purge valve seal,

−

brake booster system,

−

air induction system, and

−

crankcase ventilation system.

•

Since fault condition in a wiring connector may trigger DTCs, always test the connectors related to this diagnostic
procedure for shorted terminals or poor wiring connection before replacing any component. Refer to 8A Electrical -
Body and Chassis for information on electrical fault diagnosis.

To assist diagnosis, refer to 3 Wiring Diagrams and Connector Charts in this Section, for the system wiring
diagram and connector charts.

Test the MAF sensor 5 V reference circuit for a high resistance, open
circuit or short to voltage fault condition. Refer to 8A Electrical - Body
and Chassis for information on electrical fault diagnosis.

N O T E

The MAF sensor shares the 5 V reference circuit with
other sensors. A fault condition in the 5 V reference circuit
will trigger DTCs on sensors that share this circuit.

Was any fault found and rectified?

DTC P0112 or P0113

DTC Descriptors

This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTCs:

•

DTC P0112 – Intake Air Temperature Sensor Circuit Low Voltage

•

DTC P0113 – Intake Air Temperature Sensor Circuit High Voltage

Circuit Description

The ECM applies a reference 5 V to the intake air temperature (IAT) sensor signal circuit and ground through the low
reference circuit. The IAT sensor is a variable resistor that measures the engine intake air temperature.

Engine Management – V6 – Diagnostics

Page 6C1-2–73

•

Increased temperature in the intake air decreases the resistance value of the IAT sensor. This increases the IAT
sensor pull-down rate to ground. Therefore, the higher the intake air temperature, the lower the signal voltage
output of the IAT sensor.

•

Decreased temperature in the intake air increases the resistance value of the IAT sensor. This reduces the IAT
sensor pull-down rate to ground. Therefore, the lower the intake air temperature, the higher the signal voltage
output of the IAT sensor.

An IAT sensor circuit DTC sets if the ECM detects the intake air temperature is outside the specified range.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Runs continuously once the following conditions are met:

•

The engine is running for longer than 3.0 minutes.

•

The engine is idling for longer than 10.0 seconds

Conditions for Setting the DTC

DTC P0112

The ECM detects the intake air temperature is greater than 132

°C for longer than 3.0 seconds.

DTC P0113

The ECM detects the intake air temperature is less than - 38

°C for longer than 3.0 seconds.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The IAT sensor DTCs are Type B DTCs. Refer to 1.4

Diagnostic Trouble Codes in this Section, for action taken when

a Type B DTC sets and conditions for clearing Type B DTC.

Additional Information

•

Refer to 6C1-1 Engine Management – V6 – General Information for details of the IAT Sensor operation.

•

For an intermittent fault condition, refer to 5.2

Intermittent Fault Conditions in this Section.

•

Test the IAT sensor using the IAT Temperature vs. Resistance in 6C1-3 Engine Management – V6 – Service
Operations. If the engine has sat overnight, the IAT sensor should display within 3

°C of the ECT sensor values.

•

To assist diagnosis, refer to 3

Wiring Diagrams and Connector Charts in this Section, for the system wiring

diagram and connector charts.

Test Description

The following numbers refer to the step numbers in the diagnostic table:

Tests the signal circuit of the IAT sensor.

Measures the integrity of the IAT sensor low reference circuit. Removal of the ECM Fuse 29 enables the ECM to
power down completely prior to the test procedure.
