Testing P0113 error

 


I found this video on testing both functions of the MAF sensor (we are testing the seciond part, the IAT part.

You will need the correct tool to remove the sensor, in my case it was a Philips screwdriver and a multimeter to test the function of the temperature side of the sensor, you will also need to understand how to use and understand readings from your multimeter 

  1. remover the plug for the sensor.
  2. Remove the screws 
  3. gently wiggle the sensor and it will come out 
  4. lay the sensor on a clean surface 
  5. get the multimeter and set it up to read K ohms
information on testing from the above has been snipped out 







On measuring the sensor with the ambient temp that the sensor is in is at 17 degrees, I got 1.92k ohm (this is working fine at this temperature), it doesn't mean the sensor isn't failing at higher temps.

I cleared the error code and switched the ignition off and started the car, it hasn't come back yet, I will take the car for a drive and see if it comes back
