DESCRIPTION

The mass air flow meter uses a platinum hot wire. The mass air flow meter consists of a platinum hot wire, a temperature sensor and a control circuit installed in a plastic housing. The mass air flow meter works on the principle that the hot wire and temperature sensor located in the intake air by-pass of the housing detect any changes in the intake air temperature.
The hot wire is maintained at the predetermined temperature by controlling the current flow through the hot wire. This current flow is then related as the output voltage of the mass air flow meter.
The circuit is constructed so that the platinum hot wire and temperature sensor provide a bridge circuit, with the power transistor controlled so that the potential of A and B remains equal to maintain the predetermined temperature.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration (Click here) and initialization (Click here).
HINT:
If DTCs relating to different systems are output, and they share terminal E2 as their ground, check this ground circuit first.
1.READ VALUE OF INTELLIGENT TESTER (MAF)
  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  1. Start the engine.

  1. Turn the intelligent tester ON.

  1. Enter the following menus: "Powertrain / Engine / Data List / MAF" and read its value displayed on the intelligent tester.

    Result:

    Air flow rate (gm/s)
    Proceed to
