Anyway to tell if my IAT sensor has gone bad just by looking at it? Im throwing this code and cant seem to find any breaks in the wires?

Im about to go get a new one from honda, but need to know if there is any way to check?

Thanks

 

your better off getting one from the junkyard for $20 bucks instead of the dealership at $200.00+

 

Its 61.00 @ my dealership......you may be thinking of a different part.

Ok well I am going to get the sensor now and hopefully it will fix the prob., but I have seen many of times people have this problem, replace the sensor and still have the code. This then means that wiring is the problem. We will see.


Ohh and should I reset my ecu after I put the new sensor on?

 

yea im probably thing of the iac . what is the iat??

 

isnt that the "intake air temperture"

Yep IAT......and I just got back with a new one and 65.00$ later

Anyhow I am letting the engine cool and then I will replace it, reset the ecu and hopefully it fixes the problem.

How should I reset my ecu (battery or ecu chip)? And how long should I let it sit?

 

Try this to reset your ECU:

Turn your key to the on position (just before it cranks)
Turn it off.

Do that three times and the ECU should be reset without disconnecting the battery or anything.

never heard of that...you sure

How long to I have to let the car sit before I drive it. Just wondering b/c doesnt the ecu have to sit with the car turned on for a while to erase all previous codes if fixed?

 

did that fix your problem? I am also throwing code 10

 

Nope..........must be the wiring
