After i plugged my car into diagnostic computer, it shows me "intake air temperature fault" error.
Please can you explain me what does it means and where is it located?

the intake air temp. sensor (IAT) is most likely at fault, it is located near the intake manifold (depending on which engine size, it could be on rear, bottom etc.. of intake manifold).
