I need to locate the iat for 2012 Ford Triton V-10 6.8 liter plus wire colors for the two wires that supply the iat

This 2012 Ford Triton V-10 6.8 liter is the engine for a 2013 Thor A.C.E. Motor Coach. I think I have located this sensor just past the air filter housing unit It is a 6 hole connection with only 4 wires that are Yellow/red, Gray,Black/white, and Gray/ brown. This unit is a flat cylinder with what appears to be an exposed diode on the end of the flat cylinder. Is this the MAF/IAT Sensor

That sounds like a Mass Air Flow sensor. Why are you checking it? What are your symptoms? Make sure your air filter is clean.

SOURCE: installing chip and want to double check wiring. Need to find IAT/MAF sensor diagram for 2003 Ford Ranger

Save your money, the chip is a ohm resistor at Radio Shack for under $2.00. It splices in to you IAT wire harness located at the intake tube between the air filter housing and throttle body.
Problem with this system is, that you can not adjust anything and have to run a constant 91 octane just to make sure you do not have a Detonation. The ECM will catch the Detonation from the knock sensor and compensate for it by retarding the timing which in turn lose of HP till next start up.
If you like and don't mind the check engine light on once and awhile, you can do the same by just disconnecting the IAT wire harness which give the ECM a 0 resistance thinking it's -20 out side and turn the timing up and lengths the injector pules.
When i was running a Nitro in the Toy before i sold it, i had installed a 10K ohm Potentiometer which you can buy at radio shack for under $5.00 i believe, I just spliced it in to the IAC wire harness so if i wanted to play with the Nitro I'ld turn the resistor up making the engine think it's 185 degrees F and would ****** the timing so i would not hurt the engine. But if i wanted to get more timing i would just turn the knob to drop the resistance to get more time since the engine thinks it's -20 out side.
Hope this helps. Keep me posted if you need more info. Best thing is to do a dyno tune and you can change everything right down to the Shift points.

My maf sensor pigtail was cut and stolen. I purchased a new pigtail from ford and I need to know the color codes so I can intall a new one. my vehicle is a 2004 ford f-150 lariat with a 5.4 liter engine....

As long as you are talking about the new body style ( 3V 5.4 L )

The module is the MAFS and the IAT sensors

The IAT section is :
PCM to IAT is Gray wire
The return to the electronic engine controls from the IAt is Gray w/ REd stripe wire

The MAFS
PCM to MAFS ( MAF ) is Light Blue w/ Red stripe wire
The MAF return on the PCM is Tan w/ Light Blue stripe wire
The ground ( same as the Charge motion control valve ) is Black w/ White stripe wire.

Cant find IAT on 99 jeep grand cherokee laredo...

Intake Air Temperature sensor.

It has to be installed ->BEFORE the throttle body, to sense the density of the air entering the intake manifold, based upon intake manifold temperature.

It provides an input voltage to the PCM, (Powertrain Control Module)
It's a Negative Thermal Coefficient sensor, (NTC. It uses two wires)

Meaning, as intake manifold temperature Increases, resistance in the sensor increases.
(Less voltage)
As the temperature Decreases, resistance in the sensor Decreases. (More voltage)

The PCM then uses this input to calculate the following;
1.Injector-Pulse Width
2.Adjustment of spark timing.

Just thought you might want to know.

Wish I knew what size your engine is.
A. The IAT in the 3.7 Liter engine, is located in the Left side, {Drivers} of Intake Manifold Plenum. (BEFORE the throttle body)

See that plastic 'snorkel' tube, that comes from the air cleaner housing, and goes to an oval shaped aluminum housing? That oval shaped, {On the end}, housing is the Intake Manifold Plenum.

The 4.7 Liter engine has the IAT in the same place.
The 4.0 Liter has the IAT installed INSIDE, the Front of the Intake Manifold Plenum. (Before the throttle body)

The color of the two wires are Brown with a Yellow stripe, (Thick 20 gauge wire), and Black with a Red stripe. (Thinner wire. 18 gauge)
