Diagnosis Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Nissan Titan XD. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK DTC PRIORITY 
    1. Turn ignition switch ON.
    2. Connect CONSULT and check for ENGINE diagnostic trouble codes.
    3. Check for DTC P0102-00 being current on the CONSULT screen.

    Is applicable DTC detected?

    YES

    GO TO 2 .

    NO

    Refer to Intermittent Incident .

  2. CHECK FOR CURRENT DTC RELATED TO SENSOR VOLTAGE SUPPLY 

    Using CONSULT, check for other "current" ENGINE diagnostic trouble codes.

    Is DTC P262D-00 detected?

    YES

    Refer to DTC Description .

    NO

    GO TO 3 .

  3. CHECK MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR 
    1. Inspect the intake and exhaust systems for blockage or restrictions
      • Inspect the air filter for excessive dirt, soiling or other problems that can cause restricted air flow
      • Inspect the charge-air cooler hoses/tubes and connections
      • Inspect all air intake, crankcase vent and turbocharger related hoses/tubes and connections for damage, air leaks or blockage
      • Check charge-air cooler restriction
    2. Inspect the exhaust system for damaged components that could cause exhaust flow blockage.

    Are any blockages or damages found?

    YES

    Repair or replace damaged or restricted component.

    NO

    GO TO 4 .

  4. INSPECT MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR AND CONNECTOR PINS 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect mass air flow sensor from engine harness connector.
    3. Remove the mass air flow sensor from its mounting location.
    4. Inspect the mass air flow sensor body and heated wire for the following:
      • Loose connector
      • Corroded pins
      • Bent or broken pins
      • Pushed back or expanded pins
      • Moisture in or on the connector
      • Missing or damaged connector seals
      • Dirt or debris on or in the connector pins
      • Connector shell broken
      • Wire insulation damage
      • Damaged connector locking tab

    Is the inspection result normal?

    YES

    GO TO 5 .

    NO

    Repair or replace error-detected parts.

  5. CHECK MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR SUPPLY VOLTAGE AT SENSOR 
    1. Turn ignition switch ON.
    2. Check the voltage between MAF sensor supply voltage and return circuit terminals.

  6. CHECK MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR POWER SUPPLY FOR SHORT CIRCUIT 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect the ECM connector F101.
    3. Wait 30 seconds.
    4. Measure the resistance between MAF sensor supply voltage and return circuit terminals.
