Intake Air Temperature Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Nissan Pathfinder. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Check resistance between intake air temperature sensor (1) terminals 5 and 6 under the following conditions.
    INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR RESISTANCE

    Intake air temperature °C (°F) Resistance kΩ
    25 (77) 1.800 - 2.200
  2. If NG, replace mass air flow sensor (with intake air temperature sensor).
