IAT SENSOR / Trac control light
Friday, November 18, 2005 5:11 AM
I recently tried the iat sensor relocation (yes i know it was dumb) and the trac off light went on, after this the car started to shift pretty hard, and after a little while the cel came on, If i unhook the battery it will reset the lights but after about 10-15 minutes it kicks on again and the car starts to shift hard again, i also took out the tuner tube as well. I went ahead and placed the iat back in its original place but i am still experiencing the same issue.If anyone can give me an indication as to what is wrong here it would be greatly appreciated

IAT has nothing to do with traction control.Are you sure you did not unhook anything else?For now all I can say is put a scan tool on it and see what the code is.

^ incorrect.

you left it unplugged

(this is the exact symptom when you either leave your IAT unplugged or you completely broke it, trust me, happened to me)

also a scan tool will do you no good with a trac off light.

you have the actual sensor itself, and the wire plug that you plug into it.....(that goes to the car computer lol)

did you forget to plug in the plug?
