Hyundai Elantra: Engine Control System / Intake Air Temperature Sensor (IATS)
Description and operation
Intake Air Temperature Sensor (IATS) is included inside Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor and detects the intake air temperature.
To calculate precise air quantity, correction of the air temperature is needed because air density varies according to the temperature. So the ECM uses not only MAPS signal but also IATS signal. This sensor has a Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) and its resistance is in inverse proportion to the temperature.

Repair procedures
1. | Turn ignition switch OFF. |
2. | Disconnect IATS connector. |
3. | Measure resistance between IATS terminals 1 and 2. |
4. | Check that the resistance is within the specification. Specification : Refer to "Specification" |
|
1. | Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal. |
2. | Disconnect the manifold absolute pressure sensor connector (A). |
3. | Remove the manifold absolute pressure sensor (B) after loosening the bolt. Tightening Torque : 9.8 - 11.8 N.m (1.0 - 1.2 kgf.m, 7.2 - 8.7 lb-ft) |

Checking the Engine Oil Level
1. Follow all of the oil manufacturer’s
precautions.
2. Be sure the vehicle is on the level
ground in P (Park) with the parking
brake set. If possible, block the
wheels.
3. Turn the engine on and allow the
engine to reach normal operating
