This gives Dodge ram 3500 Intake Manifold Temperature Sensor an important role of determining the temperature of the air that gets into the engine thus guaranteeing that the combustion is good and that the engine is working as expected. This information is sent to the Powertrain Control Module where the setting of the fuel injectors are corrected to an appropriate value to balance theair/fuel ratio. The Intake Manifold Temperature Sensor used by Dodge Ram 3500 has evolved over the years with the use of different types of the sensors such as the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensors and the Velocity Air Flow (VAF) sensors. All of them are set to cover certain flow rates only while also optimized for the fuel injectors used. Faults at the Intake Manifold Temperature Sensor cause poor engine performance that may lead to stalling or an incorrect air/fuel mixture, therefore, air intake system inspection involves checking for leaks or a faulty sensor.
