Circuit Description

Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor is a thermistor. PCM applies and monitors a 5-volt reference signal to sensor. When air is cold, sensor resistance is high and PCM will measure a high signal voltage. If air is warm, sensor resistance is low causing PCM to measure low voltage.
