This DTC sets when the IAT value is higher than a calibrated value indicating that the rationality test has failed and could prevent one or more on board diagnostic (OBD) monitors from completing.
The ECM/PCM runs this logic after an engine OFF and a calibrated soak period (typically 6 - 8hours). This soak period allows IAT and other temperature sensors to stabilize and not differ by greater than a calibrated value. DTC P0111 sets when the IAT at engine start exceeds the other temperature sensors by greater than a calibrated value.
