Code P0097 Buick Description

The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor 1 is a variable resistor that changes the voltage on the Engine Control Module (ECM) supplied 5 V signal circuit. The signal varies with inlet air temperature in the sensor bore and is displayed by the scan tool as °C (°F). The IAT sensor 2 and the humidity sensor share the same circuit. The IAT sensor 2 signal is displayed by the scan tool as Hertz (Hz) and °C (°F). The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be set when the ECM detects that the IAT sensor 2 signal is intermittent or has abruptly changed for longer than 5 s.
