Air Temperature Sensor ( Ambient / Intake )

1994 Ford Taurus V6-182 3.0L DOHC SHOSECTION Air Temperature Sensor ( Ambient / Intake )

Engine Coolant/Intake Air Temperature Sensor Values:






Notes: Engine coolant temperature must be greater than 10°C (50°F) to pass the KOEO Self-Test and greater than 82°C (180°F) to pass the KOER Self-Test. To accomplish this, the engine should be at normal operating temperature.

Ambient temperature should be above 10°C (50°F) to receive acceptable input from the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor.

Voltage values were calculated for VREF=5.0 volts. These values may vary 16 percent due to sensor and VREF variations.
