Error codes 11 & 13 air intake fault codes on 190E
2.6L. Okay I got the codes off they read as follows.
11- Air injection system, open or short circuit 13- Intake air temperature reading is illogical Any idears? Is there an intake temp sensor that has gone postal or???? |
Ohm them both and post the resistance values...
|
I don't even know what the air injection system is.... I will replace the temp sensor for $30.
|
Fine...
|
Sorry, just a little frustrated trying to track down a component I am not familiar with. I suck at the electronics and while looking at the schematics found the temp sensor and that it was only $30, I guess that after sleeping on it you are right, I should check it before if I replace it. But I cannot locate and air injection system. Is it possible that was a California only emmission device?

<I should check it before if I replace it. >
Well, it is easier to check it than to replace it , have that not work, and then have to check it anyway... ,,but that is just an opinion. Mant times you can just replace the part a code brings up and get away with it...like about 2-3 % of the time. Not a good idea. Your AIR system is the smog pump and it has a magnetic clutch that has a code that indicates it is open circuit or shorted circuit...so , replace the pump OR check the connector at the pump for power and check the clutch coil for an open . ...as I recommended in my first diagnotic procedure post. |

I will report back on the 13 intake temp sens. Thanks again. |
Very good...that would be a most likely possible.
If the AIT sensor is not open or have a bad connection, then a likely possible on that code is the sensor is dirty from airflow debries and engine blow- by. The simple remedy for that condition is to spray the element with a cleaner [ like MAF cleaner ] and plug it back in. |
I drove the car a short distance this afternoon, not sure if it was enough for a cycle but the check engine light did not come back on. I also should mention that when I was looking at the temp sensor, it was dusty and I took the opportunity to clean it.
I might be good to go at this point but I will drive it a few times and see if throws any more codes. Thanks again for the tips. :) |
All good, thanks AD!!!!

You're Welcome.....
