P0113 : Intake Air Temperature Sensor 1 Circuit High

Quick Answer
Faible GraviteConduite possible (a court terme)Emissions

P0113 means the intake air temperature (IAT) sensor is reporting an unusually high voltage, which the ECU interprets as extremely cold air temperatures that do not match actual conditions. This almost always points to a wiring fault, a failed sensor, or a disconnected electrical connector rather than a real temperature problem.

Que signifie P0113 ?

P0113 means the intake air temperature (IAT) sensor is reporting an unusually high voltage, which the ECU interprets as extremely cold air temperatures that do not match actual conditions. This almost always points to a wiring fault, a failed sensor, or a disconnected electrical connector rather than a real temperature problem.

P0113 est un code defaut lie a emissions, classe en gravite low. Lorsque le calculateur de ton vehicule detecte cette condition, il enregistre P0113 et allume le voyant moteur.

Quels sont les symptomes de P0113 ?

Si ton vehicule a declenche P0113, tu peux remarquer un ou plusieurs de ces symptomes :

  • Check engine light on
  • Slightly rough idle, especially on cold starts
  • Marginally higher fuel consumption
  • Possible hard starting in cold weather
  • Minor hesitation on acceleration

Quelles sont les causes de P0113 ?

Voici les causes les plus courantes de P0113, classees selon la probabilite qu'elles soient en cause :

eleveeDisconnected or corroded IAT sensor connector
eleveeOpen circuit in IAT sensor wiring
moyenneFaulty IAT sensor (internal open circuit)
moyenneDamaged wiring harness near the air intake
faibleFaulty ECU (extremely rare)

Peut-on rouler sans risque avec P0113 ?

En general oui, pour des trajets courts. Generally safe to drive. The ECU will use a default air temperature value, which may slightly reduce fuel efficiency and performance. Repair at your convenience but do not ignore indefinitely.

Comment diagnostique-t-on P0113 ?

Suis ces etapes pour identifier la cause profonde de P0113 :

  1. Locate the IAT sensor - it is typically in the air intake tube between the air filter box and the throttle body, or integrated into the MAF sensor housing
  2. Inspect the electrical connector for corrosion, bent pins, or disconnection. Clean with electrical contact cleaner and reseat the connector firmly
  3. Read the IAT sensor value with a scan tool. With the engine cold, it should match the ambient temperature. A reading of -40 degrees C indicates an open circuit
  4. Measure resistance across the IAT sensor terminals. At 20 degrees C, resistance is typically 2,000-3,000 ohms. An open circuit (infinite resistance) means the sensor is faulty
  5. If the sensor tests fine, check wiring continuity between the sensor connector and the ECU. Repair any open or damaged wires

Ford

P0113 sur Ford Focus

2005-2024

On the 1.6 TDCi and 2.0 TDCi engines, the IAT sensor is integrated into the MAF sensor. If the MAF connector comes loose or corrodes, both P0113 and MAF codes can appear. Check the connector first before replacing the entire MAF unit.

2012-2024

The 1.2 PureTech and 1.6 BlueHDi engines have the IAT sensor in the air intake duct. Connector corrosion is common in humid climates. The sensor itself is inexpensive and easy to access on these models.

2005-2024

VW integrates the IAT sensor into the MAF sensor (part number G70/G42). A standalone IAT sensor is not replaceable - the entire MAF unit must be replaced if the integrated IAT fails. However, most P0113 cases on the Golf are connector issues.

Questions frequentes sur P0113

What does P0113 mean?

P0113 indicates the intake air temperature sensor circuit is reading too high a voltage, which the ECU interprets as extremely cold air (often -40 degrees C). This is almost always an electrical problem - a disconnected plug, broken wire, or failed sensor - rather than an actual temperature issue.

Is P0113 serious?

P0113 is a low-severity code. The ECU substitutes a default air temperature value, so the engine still runs. You may notice slightly higher fuel consumption and minor performance changes. It should be fixed but is not urgent.

How much does it cost to fix P0113?

This is one of the cheapest codes to repair. An IAT sensor costs 10-50 EUR and is usually simple to replace. If the issue is just a loose connector, the fix is free. Wiring repairs may cost 45-145 EUR if the harness is damaged.

Where is the IAT sensor located?

The IAT sensor is usually in the air intake tube between the air filter box and the throttle body. On many modern vehicles, it is integrated into the mass air flow (MAF) sensor housing. Check your vehicle manual for the exact location.
