P116E and P0113:Intake Air Temp Sensor Circuit High Input.

Question

2008 BMW X5 3.0si just bought it used and am pulling two codes, P116E and P0113:Intake Air Temp Sensor Circuit High Input. I found some info for troubleshooting the P0113 code but not the P116E code. Any ideas?

Answer 1

HI there,

The P116E code is for the mass air flow sensor. This is also part of the IAT sensor, so I would check the wiring very closely. Here is the complete description for the code.

Fault code 2D0F - P116E 

Fault text Air-mass sensor, signal 

Fault description Air Mass Flow Sensor Signal Electrical 

Condition for fault identification Test condition: Engine start completed Terminal condition: Terminal 15 ON Voltage condition: OBD1 conditions met (voltage between 10 V and 16 V) 

Condition for fault memory entry 0.2 sec. 

Action in service 1) Visual inspection of plug-in contacts (at both component and DME ends) 2) Measure sensor wire, power supply and ground (possible intermittent contact!) 3) Replace sensor
