Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 RAM Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. ACTIVE DTC 
    NOTE:

    The MAF Sensor, EGR Cooler Bypass Valve and Turbocharger Actuator get a 12V power supply from the Smart Power Relay.

    1. Ignition on, engine not running.
    2. Record freeze frame data and clear DTCs.
    3. Turn the ignition off for one minute.
    4. Turn the ignition on.
    5. With the scan tool, read DTCs.

      Did the DTC return?

      Yes 

      • Go To  2.

      No 

  2. CHECK THE (K157) MAF SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORT TO VOLTAGE

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the MAF Sensor harness connector.
    3. Turn the ignition on.
    4. Measure the voltage of the (K157) MAF Sensor Signal circuit in the MAF Sensor harness connector.

      Is the voltage equal to battery voltage?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go To  3.
  3. CHECK THE (K916) MAF SENSOR RETURN CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN/HIGH RESISTANCE

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
    3. Measure the resistance of the (K916) MAF Sensor Return circuit between the MAF Sensor harness connector and the PCM C1 harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go To  4.

      No 

  4. CHECK THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Reconnect the PCM C1 harness connector.
    3. Reconnect the MAF Sensor harness connector.
    4. Turn the ignition on, engine not running.
    5. With the scan tool, clear DTCs.
    6. Disconnect the MAF Sensor harness connector and read DTCs.

      Does the scan tool display DTC P0102 as active?

      Yes 

      No
