Default Iat sensor question.....

So how can I tell if my sensor is working without using hptuners or efilive to check my temps? If it defaults will I be able to see it on my wideband at idle? I just want to make sure before I install it and can't really turn back.

If its not working, it will read -32* and wont run.
Mine had come loose after i put the cam in and we couldnt figure out why it wouldnt crank. looked at the scan tool and IAT was -32*, plugged it back in and it read right.
