Circuit Description

The intake manifold temperature sensor monitors the temperature of the engine intake air for the ECM. The ECM uses the intake manifold temperature signal for the engine protection system, timing, and fueling control.

Component Location

The intake manifold temperature sensor is located on the top half of the intake manifold, at the front.
