P0112 Code: Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Circuit Low Input
CodePage.genericDisclaimer
Bu ne anlama geliyor?
Code P0112 indicates the IAT sensor is sending an abnormally low voltage signal (indicating high temperature) to the PCM.
Diagnostic system: Sensor circuit and live data
On a Subaru Outback, the P0112 code should be diagnosed as part of the sensor circuit and live data group. Related codes and live data from this same system can change the repair priority, so avoid replacing parts from the code name alone.
Most Common Causes for Subaru Outback
- Arızalı Emme Havası Sıcaklığı (IAT) sensörü
- Hasarlı, aşınmış veya kopuk kablo tesisatı
- Korozyona uğramış veya gevşek elektrik konnektörü
Dikkat Edilmesi Gereken Belirtiler
- Motor Arıza Lambası yanar
- Yakıt tüketiminde artış
- Düzensiz veya dengesiz rölanti
CodePage.beforeReplacing
- Inspect the connector for corrosion, broken locks, oil intrusion, or heat damage.
- Verify 5V reference, ground, and signal with a multimeter where applicable.
- Compare live sensor data to realistic engine temperature, pressure, airflow, or throttle values.
- Check for blown fuses, weak battery voltage, and damaged connectors before buying major parts.

Replacing the named sensor without testing power, ground, signal, and wiring continuity first. Always confirm the fault with freeze-frame data, live data, visual inspection, and circuit checks before spending money on parts.
CodePage.faq
Can I drive with the P0112 code?
If the check engine light is solid, you can usually drive to a safe location or mechanic. If the light is flashing, pull over immediately to prevent catastrophic engine or catalytic converter damage.
Will the P0112 code clear itself?
Once the underlying problem is fixed, the engine computer will run its self-checks. If it passes over several drive cycles, the light will turn off automatically. You can also clear it immediately using an OBD2 scanner.
Will this code fail an emissions test?
Yes. If the Check Engine Light is on due to the P0112 code, your Subaru will automatically fail an OBD2 plug-in emissions or smog test.
What should I check first for P0112?
Inspect the connector for corrosion, broken locks, oil intrusion, or heat damage. Verify 5V reference, ground, and signal with a multimeter where applicable. Compare live sensor data to realistic engine temperature, pressure, airflow, or throttle values.

Tahmini Tamir Maliyeti
Fuse, connector, wiring, cleaning, or basic inspection
Major component replacement after live data and circuit tests confirm failure
Parça ve işçilik dahildir. Konuma göre değişebilir.
Sensor replacement can be moderate cost, but wiring and connector repairs are common and cheaper.
