The intake flow rationality diagnostic provides the within-range rationality check for the mass air flow (MAF), manifold absolute pressure (MAP) and the throttle position sensors. This is an explicit model-based diagnostic containing 4 separate models for the intake system.
The estimates of MAF and MAP obtained from this system of models and calculations are then compared to the actual measured values from the MAF, MAP and the throttle position sensors and to each other to determine the appropriate DTC to fail.
