Hello everyone, I'm new to this site and Ford Focuses so please excuse any of my newbie mistakes! I have owned Fords for years, I currently have a '94 F250 and a '91 Explorer, but I am new to the Focus and OBD II.

I have been doing some work for a friend on his 2001 Focus 4-Door with the 2.0L DOHC. We ran the codes and it came up with one relating to the IAT sensor. I fixed a couple of other things for him (a vacuum leak or two) and it is still suffering from an IAT problem according to the Schucks scanner we used.

The question is: where is this sensor located and where can a replacement be purchased? Schucks did not list the part. Besides a sensor that is bad, what else could cause this problem? Thanks in advance for any help!

The IAT sensor is incorperated into the MAF (mass air flow sensor.) All OBDII ford vehicles that utilize a 6-wire mass air flow sensor have a combined MAF/IAT, 4-wire MAF sensors have a seperate IAT.

you either need to clean the MAF or replace it

hello chris_j, welcome to the FF forums! there is a lot of knowledge here and a lot of foci guru's. hope you find the info that your looking for.

IMO, like feral said, try cleaning it with some MAF cleaner or repalce it. just my $.02
