DTC P1514: Airflow Rate Excessive: Description
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2003 GMC Yukon XL, 2003 GMC Sierra, 2003 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2003 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2003 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) uses the following readings in order to calculate the predicted Mass Air Flow (MAF) rate:
- The Throttle Position (TP).
- The Barometric (BARO) pressure.
- The Intake Air Temperature (IAT).
- The engine RPM.
The PCM compares the predicted MAF value to the actual MAF value, and to the speed density calculation in order to verify the proper throttle operation.
