  1. Observe the Freeze Frame/Failure Records for this DTC.
  2. Turn OFF the ignition for 30 seconds.
  3. Start the engine.
  4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze/Frame Failure Records.
Did the DTC fail this ignition?
- Go to Step 6  Go to Diagnostic Aids
5 With the engine running, disconnect the mass air flow (MAF)/intake air temperature (IAT) sensor.
Does the engine have fuel knock/combustion noise?
- Go to Step 12  Go to Step 15

  1. Observe the MAF Sensor parameter with a scan tool.
  2. Move the harness and the connector of the MAF/IAT sensor.
Does the movement of the harness or the connector affect the MAF Sensor parameter?
- Go to Step 19  Go to Step 7 
7
  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Inspect for air leaks in the following components:
    • The air induction system and the turbocharger system
    • The MAF sensor O-ring seal
    • The boost pressure sensor seal
  3. Inspect for the following conditions:
    • An obstructed intake air duct or a dirty air filter element
    • Any debris that is blocking the air sensing filaments of the MAF sensor
    • Contamination on the air sensing filaments of the MAF sensor
    • Water intrusion in the air induction system
    • A MAF sensor that is installed backwards
    • A restricted exhaust system-Refer to Restricted Exhaust in Engine Exhaust
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  Go to Step 8 
8 Inspect the fuse in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor.
Is the fuse open?
- Go to Step 11  Go to Step 9 
9
  1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  2. Measure the battery voltage with a DMM.
  3. Disconnect the harness connector of the MAF/IAT sensor.
  4. Connect a test lamp between the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor and a good ground. Refer to Probing Electrical Connectors and Circuit Testing in Wiring Systems.
  5. Connect the DMM to the probe of the test lamp and a good ground. Refer to Measuring Voltage Drop and Circuit Testing in Wiring Systems.
Is the voltage within 1.5 volts of the specified value?
B+ Go to Step 10  Go to Step 17 
10
  1. Connect a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor and the signal circuit of the MAF sensor. Refer to Circuit Testing in Wiring Systems.
  2. Observe the MAF Sensor parameter with a scan tool.
Is the MAF Sensor parameter more than the specified value?
445 g/s Go to Step 15  Go to Step 13 
11
IMPORTANT: The ignition 1 voltage circuit of the MAF sensor is spliced to other components of the vehicle.
Test the MAF sensor ignition 1 voltage circuit for the following conditions:Did you complete the action?
- Go to Step 22  -
12
  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Disconnect the engine control module (ECM).
  3. Test the MAF sensor ignition 1 voltage circuit for the following conditions:
    • A short to the MAF sensor low reference circuit
    • A short to the IAT sensor low reference circuit- Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  Go to Step 16 
13
  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Disconnect the fused jumper wire.
  3. Disconnect the ECM.
  4. Test the MAF sensor signal circuit for the following conditions:
    • A high resistance or an open
    • A short to ground
    • A short to the IAT sensor low reference circuit
    • A short to the MAF sensor low reference circuit

      Refer toCircuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 22  Go to Step 14 
14 Measure the resistance from the signal circuit of the MAF sensor to all other circuits at all ECM connectors with a DMM. Refer to Circuit Testing in Wiring Systems.
Is the resistance less than the specified value?
infinity ohm Go to Step 18  Go to Step 16 
15 Test for shorted terminals and for an intermittent and for a poor connection at the MAF/IAT sensor. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs and Repairing Connector Terminals in Wiring Systems.
Did you find and correct the condition?
