Airflow Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1994 Plymouth Laser and 1994 Eagle Talon. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Airflow sensor is located inside air cleaner assembly. Disconnect airflow sensor electrical connector. Using an ohmmeter, measure resistance between airflow sensor connector terminals. On non-turbo models, measure resistance between connector terminals No. 4 and 6. On turbo models, measure resistance between connector terminals No. 6 and 8. See Fig 1 .
  2. Using a hair dryer, heat airflow sensor. On all models, resistance should be approximately 6000 ohms at 32°F (0°C), 2700 ohms at 68°F (20°C) and 400 ohms at 176°F (80°C). Note that as temperature increases, resistance decreases.
  3. If airflow sensor resistance is not as specified or if resistance remains unchanged, replace airflow sensor.
