NOTE:
If DTC P0641, P0651 or P0697 is present with this DTC, diagnose DTCs P0641, P0651 or P0697 before diagnosing this DTC.

Inspect all air intake and turbocharger related tubes for damage, restriction or poor connection. Any of these conditions can cause a this DTC to set.
NOTE:
If the ECM detects and stores a DTC, the ECM also stores the engine/vehicle operating conditions under which the DTC was set. Some of these conditions are displayed on the DRB at the same time the DTC is displayed.
NOTE:
Before erasing stored DTCs, record these conditions. Attempting to duplicate these conditions may assist when checking for an active DTC. Turn the ignition on.With the DRBIII®, erase the ECM DTCs.Test drive the vehicle.With the DRBIII®, read the ECM DTCs.Does the DRB III display a Mass Air Flow Sensor DTC?Yes --> Go To 2No --> Go To 5 |
