About P1112

P1112 is a manufacturer-specific powertrain diagnostic trouble code. It belongs to the P-prefix family of codes, which covers engine, transmission, emissions, or fuel-system faults.

When P1112 is stored, the module has detected a signal or supply voltage lower than the expected operating range; and a sensor-related fault — the reported value from the named sensor is out of spec.

Scanning & clearing: A generic OBD-II scan tool will usually read and clear powertrain (P) codes. For live data, freeze-frame capture, and bi-directional tests you may need a more capable scan tool that supports the vehicle's ECM protocol.

P1112 is a manufacturer-specific code. The same code string on a different make may have a different meaning. Always confirm the code's definition against the vehicle's service information for the specific make and model under test.

Code Information

This code is set when the powertrain control module (PCM) detects an intermittent low-voltage signal from the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor. The IAT sensor provides a voltage signal that decreases as the intake air temperature rises. A low-voltage condition suggests excessive resistance in the circuit, a sensor malfunction, or a wiring issue causing an intermittent loss of signal.
