Where would I find the IAT sensor on a 2007 Honda CRV EX?

Question

I found a connection that has two prongs and is to the right of the main block. I thought that was it and connected the resistor. When I hooked the battery back up, all of my lights were flashing. I took the resistor off and still the same problem. I realize I need to enter a code to reset the radio and the manual said it may take a couple of days to reset everything else. I still need to know if I hooked the resistor in the right place. Thank you.

I don't know what you connected your resistor to but it wasn't the IAT from your description of a 2 terminal connector. The IAT is part of the MAS on the 2007 CRV. The MAS (Mass Airflow Sensor) has a 4 pin connector to the combined MAS/IAT that sits on the throttle body housing.

take the resistor out of whatever you put it in. throw the resistor away or send it back to whoever sold you on the idea that you will save gas using it. These system are so sophisticated that the on-board control system will compensate for the change in the resistance value of the IAT and adjust the fuel mixture. Plus you're only asking for driveability problems.

disconnect the battery and leave the cables off for 5 minutes, then reconnect them

you will need to enter the code to reactivate the radio. the code should be on a white card that came with the owners manual. if not, it may be on a white label that is affixed to the inside of your glove box. if you can't find the code, call your dealer.

when you start the engine, let it run for 10 minutes without any accessories on (no radio, headlights, air conditioning/defroster etc) so that the car will relearn the idle values.

hope that helps
