Ive had a search on here see somthing about moterbike ait sensor working but not sure if its stock fitment

Any advice would be good and part numbers thanks

My ait sensor is dead reads fine cold but when engine reaches 80deg it goes to defult value of 25 some times random will happen straight away

And the warning alarm sounds

There is not a warning alarm for the air temp sensor.

IRPerformance

What alarm is sounding?

imitek

Lol sorry the motec has a minimum and max warning alarm

Does the wiring plug need changing with that ait sensor ? Thanks
And how quick delivery to uk

Would you suplly the sensor calibration info with it (or is it stock sensor the same)

I've used the IRPerformance sensor now for a few years of daily driving.

I remember precisely the date I installed it, because that was coincidentally the same day Paul Walker died, so nearly 2 years of use. Its been a great addition to the car and I would buy another again in a heartbeat. I do notice a small positive difference. It screwed right into the UIM and plugged into the harness and has been great.

You will need to verify it has the same or similar temp vs voltage curve as the factory if using the factory ecu.

SA3R

This is important. The IRPerformance sensor closely matches the stock temp vs voltage curve of the original OE sensor.

Some do not have the same voltage curve, and can trick the ECU into thinking the temp is much different than it actually is, and this throws things out of whack.

Simply buying a sensor because it screws in, or looks similar does not guarantee the information it gives the ECU is in the right language or format... People on this forum have compared sensors and the voltage/temp curves and determined that the particular Triumph sensor like IRPerformance sells, is the best fit for the FD in terms of accurate temp reporting based on voltage.
So buying one based on physical looks and similarity is not a very good idea.

imitek

Thanks very much for info

So i orderd 2 sensors i ended up with this one forst lol the triumph sensor still not here guessing will be here monday

I am able to adjust the sensor calibration on ecu no big deal

Im going to see what reacts fastest out of the 2

imitek

Today i have cleaned the mani and blanked the idle control valve ( it was leaking ) and its not used.
Also driilled the bung hole for new sensor
Re adjusted wax adjuster on tps side

Why are you going thru the trouble and adding a bung? I thought you wanted it to fit the stick hole.

imitek

my ignittion coil sits directly on the stock sensor i think its been banging the sensor not sure if its caused it to fail diddnt relise this till i looked at the coils had a light mark where its been hitting the sensor
This is when i thort ether move stock sensor or get another sensor alltogether ive paid for the stock fitment one above mentioned just waiting on it to be deliverd if i ever get it

Little update:

I just bought the Triumph sensor from 2wheelpros...and even though they have a photo on their website of the closed type sensor...I received an open type. So I returned it and might go with IRP and get the closed type. So If you're after the closed type, don't order from 2wheelpros!
