Diagnostic Procedures

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. If powertrain diagnostic system check was performed, go to next step. If powertrain diagnostic system check was not performed, go to POWERTRAIN DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK  under DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM TESTS. After performing powertrain diagnostic system check, go to next step.
  2. Start and operate engine at idle. Using scan tool, monitor MAF sensor frequency display. If MAF sensor value is less than 10 Hz, go to step  4. If MAF sensor value more than 10 Hz, go to next step.
  3. Turn ignition on. Using scan tool, review FREEZE FRAME and/or FAILURE RECORDS data and note parameters. Turn ignition off for at least 30 seconds. Start engine and operate vehicle within conditions required for this diagnostic to run, and as close to conditions recorded in FREEZE FRAME and/or FAILURE RECORDS as possible. Select DTC function, and then enter this DTC. If scan tool indicates that this test failed this ignition, go to next step. If scan tool does not indicate that this test failed this ignition, see DIAGNOSTIC AIDS .
  4. Check ENG SEN fuse (20-amp) located in bottom underhood fuse block. See Figure and Figure . If fuse is open, go to step  14. If fuse is okay, go to next step.
  5. Turn ignition off. Locate and disconnect MAF sensor connector. See Figure. Turn ignition on. Using DVOM, measure voltage between MAF sensor connector terminal "A" (Yellow wire) and ground. If voltage reading is about 5 volts, go to next step. If voltage reading is not about 5 volts, go to step  8.
  6. Turn ignition off. Connect a fused jumper wire between ground and MAF sensor connector terminal "A" (Yellow wire). Start engine. Check for DTCs. If additional DTCs set, go to step  16. If no additional DTCs set, go to next step.
  7. Turn ignition off. Connect test light between MAF sensor connector terminals "A" (Yellow wire) and "B" (Black/White wire). Turn ignition on. If test light illuminates, go to step  18. If test light does not illuminate, go to step  11.
  8. If voltage is less than 4.5 volts, go to step  10. If voltage is more than 4.5 volts, go to next step.
  9. Turn ignition off. Locate and disconnect PCM Red connector C2. See Figure. Turn ignition on. Using DVOM, measure voltage between ground and PCM connector C2 terminal No. 31 (Yellow wire). See Figure. If voltage is about zero volts, go to step  12. If voltage is other than specified, go to step  15.
  10. Turn ignition off. Locate and disconnect PCM Red connector C2. See Figure. Turn ignition on. Using DVOM, check for open, high resistance, short to ground or short to voltage in Yellow wire between MAF sensor connector terminal "A" and PCM connector C2 terminal No. 31 (Yellow wire). See Figure. Repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step  22. If circuit is okay, go to step  12.
  11. Connect test light between ground and MAF sensor connector terminal "A" (Yellow wire). If test light illuminates, go to step  13. If test light does not illuminate, go to step  14.
  12. With DVOM lead connected to MAF sensor connector terminal "A" (Yellow wire), check for continuity at all other circuits in both PCM connectors. If continuity exists between any circuit(s), go to step  17. If continuity does not exist between any circuit(s), go to step  19.
  13. Repair open or high resistance in Black/White wire between MAF sensor connector terminal "B" and ground connection located on rear of driver's cylinder head. After repairs, go to step  22.
  14. Repair open or short to ground in Pink wire between MAF sensor connector terminal "C" and ENG SEN fuse (20-amp) located in bottom underhood fuse block. See Figure and Figure . Replace fuse if necessary. After repairs, go to step  22.
  15. Repair short to voltage in Yellow wire between MAF sensor PCM. After repairs, go to step  22.
  16. Repair short between MAF sensor connector terminal "A" (Yellow wire) and circuit that set DTC. After repairs, go to step  22.
  17. Repair circuits that are shorted together. After repairs, go to step  22.
  18. Check for poor connections at MAF sensor connectors. Repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step  22. If connections are okay, go to step  20.
  19. Check for poor connections at PCM connectors. Repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step  22. If connections are okay, go to step  21.
  20. Replace MAF sensor. See REMOVAL, OVERHAUL & INSTALLATION - CARS article. After replacing sensor, go to step  22.
  21. Replace PCM. See REMOVAL, OVERHAUL & INSTALLATION - CARS article. After replacing PCM, go to next step.
  22. Using scan tool, clear DTCs. Turn ignition off for at least 30 seconds. Start engine and allow it to reach normal operating temperature. Operate vehicle within conditions for setting this DTC. If scan tool indicates that this test ran and passed, go to next step. If scan tool does not indicate that this test ran and passed, go to step  2.
  23. Using scan tool, select CAPTURE INFO, REVIEW INFO function. If any undiagnosed DTCs are displayed, go to applicable DTC test. See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS . If no undiagnosed DTCs are displayed, system is okay.
