WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Isuzu Hombre. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Perform On-Board Diagnostics II (OBD-II) System Check. See SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - INTRODUCTION article. Retrieve and record FREEZE FRAME and/or FAIL RECORDS data for each DTC set. Go to next step.
  2. Start engine. With engine at idle, use scan tool to read MAF value. If MAF value is greater than 20 grams per second, go to step  4. If value is less than specified, go to next step.
  3. Turn engine off. Turn ignition on, engine off. Using scan tool, read and record FAIL RECORDS data. Operate vehicle within conditions noted in FAIL RECORD data. Using scan tool, read SPECIFIC DTC. If scan tool indicates DTC P0103 failed this ignition cycle, go to next step. If scan tool does not indicate DTC P0103 failed this ignition cycle, see DIAGNOSTIC AIDS .
  4. Turn ignition off. Disconnect MAF sensor harness connector. Turn engine on and allow it to idle. Using scan tool, read MAF value. If value is about zero grams per second, go to next step. If value is not as specified, go to step  7.
  5. Check for faulty connection at MAF sensor. Repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step  10. If connection is okay, go to next step.
  6. Replace MAF sensor. After replacing sensor, go to step  10.
  7. Ensure MAF sensor harness is not routed too close to high-voltage wires, such as spark plug cables, ignition coils or other high-voltage components. Reroute harness if necessary and go to step  10. If harness routing is okay, go to next step.
  8. Check MAF sensor signal circuit (Yellow wire) connection at VCM. Repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step  10. If connection is okay, go to next step.
  9. Replace VCM. Program replacement PCM. See PROGRAMMING . After replacing VCM, go to next step.
  10. Using scan tool, select DTC, CLEAR INFO function. Start engine and allow it to reach operating temperature. Using scan tool, select DTC, SPECIFIC function and enter DTC P0103. Operate vehicle within conditions required to set DTC. If scan tool displays RAN AND PASSED, go to next step. If scan tool does not display RAN AND PASSED, return to step 2)  .
  11. Using scan tool, select Read and Record INFO, REVIEW INFO function. If any undiagnosed DTCs are displayed, diagnose affected DTCs. If no DTCs are displayed, system is okay.
