Intake Air Temperature Sensor (All Except 944 Turbo)

Pull off airflow sensor plug. Connect an ohmmeter to terminals No. 1 and 4 of airflow sensor (on control unit terminal No. 6 and 22). Readings should be as shown in INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR SPECIFICATION  table. If temperature sensor has an open circuit, it should cause a richer mixture. If temperature sensor has a grounded circuit, it should be leaner mixture.

NOTE: It is important that intake air temperature be 60-85°F (15-35°C) for CO level adjustments.
