Help please, where can I locate the IAT sensor? Anyone got any pics to share please? 

There is actually 3 of them, so ideally you need to know which one your looking for........if you have done any work "near" any of them, then thats the first port of call to see if they are plugged in etc.

I’ll let you know how I get on. 

Also, where can I get copies of these?

The first picture is what code I get.

 

second picture is the part number, I think this is the one?? Please correct me if I’m wrong. 
 

third picture is some pretty dodgy wiring! I don’t think that’s original and might be the issue. 
 

let me know what you think 

I would like to think that the plug in your picture IS the problem, the wiring looks to be very suspect.

 

The seal (grey rubber) is coming out of the back of the plug on what looks like the black wire, this could indicate the pin is not clicked home and is making no contact on the sensor pin, hence the fault code.

 

That plug needs to be repaired / replaced properly "before" condeming any sensor.

 

If your confident / capable to re-pin the plug then do that, if its passed its best (which I suspect it is) then the best / most reliable solution is to fit and new connector / pins and wires tails and re-join to origianl loom.

 

EDIT.......

 

Its a 4 pin P/N

 

 

 

Ebay item with tails to easily splice in.

thanks for the feedback on this, taking it to a garage to fix the wiring in the new year. 

 

new spark plugs have made a big difference though

With further inspection of this, the blue wire has been soldered before and has come apart.

 

with there being no room behind, is there a better way to fix this? 
 

can I buy the total wiring look for that part or will it be all in one? 

ermmmmmmmm did you not look / read what I put above ???????

 

you need to replace the plug, if your asking how to best do this then I would suggest the best way is to buy the link below and then cut and splice back into the vehicle loom taking note of wires to which pin numbers, (colours will vary on replacements ), but as long as the PINS match how it is now it will be fine.

If you don't know how to splice back into the loom, then I would suggest buy the plug and tails and call an auto electrician or take it to the garage you mentioned above.

 

If you are in or near Derbyshire, bring to me with the new part and I'll do it for free,
