P0098Intake Air Temperature Sensor 2 Circuit High Bank 1
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- Turns on the check-engine light
- Matters for the ITP
- Needs a drive cycle to confirm a fix
- How the car detects it
- Intake air temperature sensor 2 is the second air temperature sensor in the intake path; on many turbocharged engines it sits in the intake manifold, often combined with the manifold pressure sensor, and is used to calculate cylinder filling and ignition timing. For P0098, the sensor signal is above its valid range. With the usual voltage-type NTC sensor this means an open circuit or a short to the reference voltage, and the control module reads an extremely low temperature; with sensors that have a frequency output, a high signal corresponds to an extremely high temperature.
- What you may notice

- Inspection (ITP)
- Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
