DTC 24
DTC 24 Intake Air Temp. Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The intake air temp. sensor is built into the mass air flow meter 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.
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).

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT: If diagnostic trouble codes "22" (engine coolant temperature sensor circuit), "24" (intake air temperature sensor circuit) and "41" (throttle position sensor circuit) are output simultaneously, E2 (sensor ground) may be open.
