What is the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor and how is it replaced on Toyota Solara?

The intake manifold temperature sensor is a thermistor that changes its resistance values in accordance with temperature changes, directly affecting the voltage signal from the sensor to the PCM. Any problem in the intake manifold temperature sensor circuits will set a diagnostic trouble code. On four-cylinder models, the intake manifold temperature sensor is located in the air cleaner assembly and can be disconnected from its electrical connector to measure the resistance between the two terminals using an ohmmeter. To replace the intake manifold temperature sensor, ensure the ignition key is in the OFF position, disconnect the electrical connector, and remove the sensor from the air cleaner. Installation is the reverse of removal.

Toyota Solara Intake Manifold Temperature Sensor

The Intake Manifold Temperature Sensor is part of Toyota Solara, which is required to give the right formula of air to fuel mixture for efficient combustion. It is often used together with the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor that determines the amount of air coming into the engine and reporting to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). PCM then adjusts fuel injector timing based on the information and thus achieves maximum engine efficiency. Different versions of Intake Manifold Temperature Sensors have been installed on Toyota Solara at some time or another with the objective of providing accurate measurements of intake air temperature. Some of the variations which might exist between these sensors may be with respect to calibration settings and compatibility with different fuel injectors given the ever present probabilities of performance enhancement exercises. The Intake Manifold Temperature Sensor is also relevant to the car's performance, as it, for example, may cause poor acceleration and incorrect air-fuel ratios if it does not operate properly.
