Diagnostic Procedure

  1. Turn ignition off. Connect New Generation Star (NGS) tester or equivalent to OBD-II Data Link Connector-2 (DLC-2). See Figure. Turn ignition on. Monitor for FREEZE FRAME DATA and ensure data has been recorded. Check for service bulletins and/or other line of repair information related to this DTC. If repair information is available, perform diagnosis and repair as necessary. After repair, go to step  8. If repair information is not available, go to next step.
  2. Turn ignition off. Disconnect IAT sensor 2-pin harness connector. See Figure. Check IATfor poor connection due to damaged, pulled-out pins, corrosion, etc. If connector terminals are okay, go to next step. If connector terminals are found faulty, repair or replace as necessary and go to step  8.
  3. With IAT sensor harness connector disconnected, measure resistance between IAT sensor connector terminals "A" and "B" (component side). Resistance should be 2.21-2.69 k/ohms at 68°F (20°C). If resistance is as specified, go to next step. If resistance is not as specified, replace IAT sensor. After repair, go to step  8.
  4. Leave IAT sensor harness connector disconnected and turn ignition on. Measure voltage between ground and IAT sensor connector terminal "A" (Black/Red wire) and "B" (Pink/Blue wire). If battery voltage is not found, go to next step. If battery voltage is found, repair short circuit to battery voltage (in Black/Red or Pink/Blue wire) between IAT sensor and PCM. For circuit identification, see MIATA in WIRING DIAGRAMS article. After repair, go to step  8.
  5. Leave IAT sensor harness connector disconnected and disconnect PCM 31-pin harness connector. See Figure. Check PCMterminals "4N" and "4O" for poor connection due to damaged, pulled-out pins, corrosion, etc. If connector terminals are okay, go to next step. If connector terminals are found faulty, repair or replace as necessary and go to step  8.
  6. With IAT sensor and PCM harness connectors disconnected, check continuity between IAT sensor harness connector terminal "B" and PCM harness connector terminal "4N" (Pink/Blue wire). If continuity is found, go to next step. If continuity is not found, repair open circuit (in Pink/Blue wire) between IAT sensor and PCM. After repair, go to step  8.
  7. With IAT sensor and PCM harness connectors disconnected, check continuity between IAT sensor harness connector terminal "A" and PCM harness connector terminal "4O" (Black/Red wire). If continuity is found, go to next step. If continuity is not found, repair open circuit (in Black/Red wire) between IAT sensor and PCM. After repair, go to next step.
  8. Return vehicle to original condition. Using NGS tester or equivalent, clear DTCs from PCM memory. Start engine and let it idle until it reaches normal operation temperature. Monitor for DTCs. If same DTC P0113 is present, replace PCM. For PCM removal and installation, see POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE under COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS in REMOVAL, OVERHAUL & INSTALLATION article. If any other DTC is present, follow appropriate DTC diagnostic procedure.
