Intake air temperature sensor 2 for bank 2 is the second air temperature sensor in the intake path of the second cylinder bank, for example in the intake manifold behind the charge air cooler on engines with two intake paths. For P00A5, this is the general circuit fault; low and high signals have their own codes. No manufacturer description naming this exact code was found. Bank 2 codes occur only on engines with two separate intake or charge-air paths, one per cylinder bank.
Likely causes
Connector or wiring faulty
Sensor faulty
Supply or ground disturbed
Engine control module faulty
Symptoms
- Check engine light on
- Usually no noticeable symptoms
- Emissions test or readiness check may fail
