Refer to DTC P007A11.
When DTC P007A15 is stored, the ECM enters fail-safe mode. During fail-safe mode, the intake air temperature is estimated to be 45°C (113°F) by the ECM. Fail-safe mode continues until a pass condition is detected.

When this DTC is output, check the intake air temperature (for intake manifold) in the Data List. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Intake Air Temperature B1S1 (Turbo).
| DTC No. | Intake Air Temperature B1S1 (Turbo) | Malfunction |
|---|---|---|
| P007A15 | -40°C (-40°F) | ·
Short in THIM circuit to power source circuit ·
Open in THIM circuit ·
Open in EPIM circuit |
If the Data List values is normal it may be due to a temporary recovery from the malfunction condition. Check for intermittent problems.
When the ignition switch is turned to ON and the output voltage of the intake air temperature sensor is higher than 4.9 V for 3 seconds or more, the ECM determines that the intake air temperature sensor circuit is malfunctioning and stores a DTC.
Read Freeze Frame Data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
