Default Code 24 Air Intake Temperature Sensor??

On my 92 sc400...i threw code 24 and 25(24-Intake Air Temperature Sensor signal.
25-Air-Fuel Ratio Lean. ). 25 is running lean and 24 is air intake temperature sensor. Anyone know what code 24 can be caused? Where is the sensor and the cost and labor to repair this thing. For my code 25 I assume it is the primary o2's. ANy suggestions and/or experiences woudl be great guys! thanks

Air intake temp sensor is located inside the mass air flow, which is the same unit. Lexus used the same sensor measure both air volume and air temperature.

Code 25 means one of your main O2 goes bad. You have 4 O2 sensors on your car. Two main sensors are located on the exhaust manifold and two sub sensors located on the exhaust pipe right after the catalyst convertor. If one of the main sensor goes bad another will follow. I recommend to replace both of them at the same time.

Most people say code 25 is from upstream airflow, thus making it the primary o2 sensors that are bad. Any comments anyone on this statement? thanks
