Circuit Description

The intake manifold air temperature sensor monitors intake manifold air temperature and passes information to the electronic control module (ECM)
through the engine harness. If the intake manifold air temperature becomes too high, it will cause a derate condition.

Component Location

The intake manifold air temperature sensor is located in the air intake manifold. Refer to Procedure 100-002 for a detailed component location view.

Shop Talk

The intake manifold air temperature sensor measures the temperature of the charge-air as it passes through the intake manifold. Possible causes of this fault code include:

  • Plugged charge air cooler fins
  • Restricted airflow through the charge air cooler
  • Undersized charge air cooler
  • High turbocharger compressor outlet temperature.

Refer to Troubleshooting Fault Code t05-488
