Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

Mass Airflow (MAF) sensor measures amount of air entering engine during a given time. PCM uses MAF sensor information for fuel delivery calculations. MAF sensor readings during acceleration are much higher than those during deceleration or idle.

PCM calculates what MAF sensor reading should be received from sensor under certain conditions using engine speed (RPM), throttle position, and altitude parameters. When these test conditions are met, PCM will compare its calculated MAF value to actual value received from sensor.

Conditions required to set DTC are:

Engine is running.
TP angle less than 50 percent.
System voltage greater than 8 volts.
On VIN K, MAF signal frequency greater than 10,500 Hz.
On VIN 1, MAF signal frequency greater than 11,500 Hz.
Conditions present greater than 0.5 second, plus 33 crankshaft revolutions.
