At the time, I had no way to test the car, but it drove fine and had no limp mode, I drove the car home and plugged in to it and found error p0113.
Fault meaning and remedy:
What does this mean?
P0113 TOYOTA code possible causes Dirty air filter Faulty Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor (Part of the Mass Air Flow [MAF] Sensor) Intake Air Temperature sensor harness is open or shorted Intake Air Temperature sensor circuit poor electrical connection Faulty Engine Control Module (ECM)
How do I fix code P0113 TOYOTA code?
Check the "Possible Causes" listed above. Visually inspect the related wiring harness and connectors. Check for damaged components and look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded connector's pins.
This is what my sensor looked like, fixed by 2 screws on the rear of the air filter box as this sensor has two functions, it is known as the MAF sensor.
Firstly I checked the air filter I replaced in March April time and check the box isn't full of leaves.
Secondly, I checked the connector to the sensor and unplugged and pulled the wires gently, as well as checking the pins and the connectors for corrosion.
Thirdly, I removed the sensor to check there was no visible fault.
I found no big issue when with the above, so next was to try and find any way to test the IAT of the sensor and at the time I came up with nothing, but I found a comparable l MAF sensor for £11.94p, so I ordered it.
