DESCRIPTION
The intake manifold air temperature sensor is used by the
electronic control module (ECM) to monitor the temperature of
the engine intake air. The intake air temperature is used by the
ECM for the engine protection system, cold start aids, and the
timing and fueling control.
- Make sure the engine compartment temperature does not get too
high (above 93.3°C [200°F]).
- Make sure the intake manifold temperature sensor is not located
near any extreme heat sources.
Possible causes:
- Clogged, dirty, inadequate capacity air cleaner element.
- Intake restriction.
COMPONENT LOCATION
The intake manifold temperature sensor is located on the side of
the intake manifold toward the rear of the cylinder head.

TROUBLESHOOTING STEPS
Step 1A) Turn key switch ON and verify the sensor accuracy with a thermocouple or similar temperature
probe. Connect the temperature probe to the engine near the intake manifold air temperature sensor.
Connect diagnostic tool to the datalink. Run the engine, and compare the intake manifold temperature
sensor reading on the diagnostic tool monitor screen to the reading from the temperature probe.
NOTE: If a temperature measuring device is not available, answer “Yes” to this step.
NOTE: Readings may need to be checked while engine is operating at normal temperature conditions
(180°F coolant).
Yes - Locate and repair the cause of high intake No - Go to Fault Code 154
manifold air temperature
Go to 2A
Step 2A) Connect all the components and turn key switch ON. Disable the fault code. Start the engine, and
let idle for 1 minute. Load and operate engine to typical operating temperature (180F coolant). Verify Fault
Code 155 is inactive and did not reoccur.
Step 2B) Connect all components and turn key switch ON. Clear the inactive fault codes using the
diagnostic tool.
