P112E CADILLAC Meaning

The intake air temperature (IAT) sensor contains a semiconductor device that changes resistance based on temperature (a thermistor). The IAT sensor is located in the air intake passage of the engine’s air intake system. The IAT sensor has a signal circuit and a ground circuit. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors the intake air temperature sensor signal. The PCM sets the OBDII code when the intake air temperature sensor signal is outside factory specifications.
