i was resetting my timing a second ago and i looked to see if my car was throwing any codes for the hell of it, and not to my surprise it did.

Code 24: "Open Or Short Circuit In Intake Air Temp. Sensor Signal"

the stupid haynes manual says let a dealer look at it, but thats why i bought the manual in the first place... so I could look at things.

oh well, does anyone have any insight? i'd appreciate it.

pull the sensor from the car for testing, it'll just come out of the air box.

read resistance of it at room temp, then toss it in the freezer for 30 minutes, it should have more resistance i think. if it reads the same then its bad.

you could alternately dunk it in hot water, it should increase in resistance.


old joke, what do women and thermistors have in common? as you warm them up their resistance drops!
