Acura RL. Manual - part 2

 

 

Monitor Execution, Sequence, Duration, DTC Type, OBD Status

MONITOR DESCRIPTION CHART 

Enable Conditions 

ENABLE CONDITIONS 

Malfunction Threshold 

A malfunction is detected if these three conditions are not present after the engine and the ignition switch 
have been off for at least 6 hours: 

The temperature (IAT minus ECT1) is not 32°F (32°C) or less.  

The temperature (IAT minus ECT2) is not 16°F (16°C) or less.  

The temperature (ECT2 minus ECT1) is not 25°F (25°C) or less.  

Driving Pattern 

1. Turn the ignition off, and wait at least 6 hours.  

2. Start the engine, and let it idle for at least 10 seconds.  

Diagnosis Details 

Conditions for illuminating the MIL 

When a malfunction is detected during the first drive cycle, a Temporary DTC is stored in the PCM 
memory. If the malfunction recurs during the next (second) drive cycle, the MIL comes on and the DTC and 
the freeze frame data are stored. 

Conditions for clearing the MIL 

The MIL will be cleared if the malfunction does not recur during three consecutive trips in which the 
diagnostic runs. 

The MIL, the DTC, the Temporary DTC, and the freeze frame data can be cleared by using the scan tool 
Clear command or by disconnecting the battery.

General Description 

The intake air temperature (IAT) sensor is a thermistor that detects intake air temperature, and it is used for 
A/F feedback control to compensate for the atmospheric density fluctuations that accompany changes in 
intake air temperature. 

The IAT sensor resistance varies depending on temperature. The output voltage and the sensor resistance 
increase as the intake air temperature decreases. Conversely, the output voltage and the sensor resistance 
decrease as the intake air temperature increases. If the IAT sensor output voltage is excessively low, the 
powertrain control module (PCM) detects a malfunction and a DTC is stored.
