Checking voltage supply to Mass Air Flow 
(MAF) sensor  
     
-  Disconnect harness connector from air mass 
meter. 
    
Note:  
The mass air flow sensor receives its voltage supply via the fuel pump 
relay. 
If the reading does not match the battery voltage:  
 Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Troubleshooting & Component Locations    -  Connect hand-held multimeter (voltage measurement range) between 
engine Ground (GND) and socket 2 of connector. 
-  Operate starter briefly. 
   Specification: approx. battery voltage
-  Check for open circuit or short to Ground (GND) in wiring between fuel 
pump relay and socket 2 on connector via fuse. Repair if necessary.
