P1114 CHEVROLET Meaning

The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor contains a semiconductor device that changes resistance based on temperature (a thermistor). The ECT sensor is mounted in the left bank cylinder head near the front of the engine. The ECT sensor has a signal circuit and a ground circuit. The PCM applies a voltage (approximately 5.0 volts) to the sensor signal circuit. The PCM monitors changes in this voltage caused by changes in the sensor’s resistance to determine the engine coolant temperature.

When the engine coolant is cold, the sensor resistance (thermistor) is high and the PCM signal voltage is only slightly lowered across the sensor to ground. The PCM detects a high signal voltage (low temperature). When the engine coolant is hot, the sensor resistance is low and the signal voltage is lowered further. This causes the PCM to detect a low signal voltage (high temperature).

Before replacing the mass air flow sensor, try replacing the air filter and cleaning the air flow sensor with mass air flow sensor cleaner. Reset the code and drive the vehicle. If the code returns, the mass air flow sensor may need to be replaced. Monitor the IAT on a scan tool. Look for sudden changes in the reading when the harness is shaken or the sensor is tapped.

P1114 LINCOLN Meaning

The IAT sensor is a thermistor device in which resistance changes with temperature. The electrical resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature increases and resistance increases as temperature decreases. The variable resistance affects the voltage drop across the sensor terminals and provides electrical signals to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) corresponding to the temperature.

Thermistor-type sensors are considered passive sensors. A passive sensor is connected to a voltage divider network so that the change in the passive sensor’s resistance causes a change in the total current flow. The voltage that drops across a fixed resistor in series with the sensor resistance determines the voltage signal to the PCM. This voltage signal equals the reference voltage minus the voltage drop across the fixed resistor.

The IAT sensor provides air temperature information to the PCM. The PCM uses air temperature information as a correction factor in the calculation of fuel, spark, and air flow.

The IAT sensor provides faster response time to temperature change than the ECT or CHT sensor.
Currently, there are 2 types of IAT sensors used, a standalone, non-integrated type and an integrated type. Both types function the same way, but the integrated type is integrated into the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor instead of being a standalone sensor.
