DTC 24

CODE 24 - INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT

Circuit Description

The intake air temp. sensor is built into the air cleaner cap and senses the intake air temperature. The structure of the sensor and connection to the ECM is the same as in the engine coolant temp. sensor shown in Code 22.

If the ECM detects the diagnostic trouble code "24", it operates the fail safe function in which the intake air temperature is assumed to be 20°C (68°F).
