Check the wiring for breaks, tears, frays, etc.... and the connector for a bad or dirty connection

Re: Help with iat sensor

on my car, the wire for the IAT just makes it to where the sensor plugs into my AEM intake, and that's after i cut some of the tape around the wires to free up some slack. If you have an intake, or if the car had one before, it's possible the wires have been pulled out of the plug, or dislodged enough that they aren't working. i'd check that, then follow the wire toward the ecu, and see if you see any problems there.
