This summary uses the existing diagnostic information shown in full below.
This code means that the car's computer has detected a problem with one of the sensors that measures the temperature of the air going into the engine. It's like a thermometer for the air, and it's not working right.
The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor measures the temperature of the air entering the engine. This information is used by the engine control module (ECM) to adjust the air/fuel mixture for optimal performance. A P00EE code indicates that the sensor's readings are out of the expected range.
The P00EE code is triggered when the ECM detects that the intake air temperature sensor 3 on bank 2 is sending a signal that is outside the expected range. This could be due to a faulty sensor, wiring issues, or a problem with the ECM itself.
• Check Engine Light is on
• Poor engine performance
• Increased fuel consumption
• Faulty intake air temperature sensor
• Wiring issues such as shorts or open circuits
• Faulty ECM
ECM: Engine Control Module
IAT: Intake Air Temperature
• Use an OBD-II scanner to verify the code and check for other related codes.
• Inspect the intake air temperature sensor and its wiring for damage.
• Test the sensor's resistance and compare it to specifications.
• Replace the intake air temperature sensor if faulty.
• Repair or replace damaged wiring or connectors.
• Reprogram or replace the ECM if necessary.
• OBD-II scanner
• Multimeter
• Basic hand tools

• Ford F-150
• Chevrolet Silverado
• Toyota Camry
• Regularly inspect and clean the intake air temperature sensor.
• Ensure wiring and connectors are in good condition.
• Perform regular vehicle maintenance.
Sensor Issue
• Do not ignore the Check Engine Light.
• Have the vehicle inspected by a professional if unsure.
Check with your vehicle manufacturer for warranty coverage on emissions-related components.
This code is relatively uncommon and often associated with specific sensor or wiring issues.
Moderate – It's important to address this issue to avoid potential engine performance problems.
Driving with a malfunctioning sensor can lead to increased emissions and fuel consumption.
• Engine running
• Ambient temperature within normal operating range
The intake air temperature sensor is typically located in the air intake duct or manifold.
Q: Can I drive with a P00EE code?
A: It's possible to drive, but it's not recommended as it can lead to poor engine performance and increased fuel consumption.
Q: How do I reset the Check Engine Light after fixing the issue?
A: You can use an OBD-II scanner to clear the code after the repair is completed.
