DTC 31 Mass Air Flow Meter Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The mass air flow meter is an air flow meter which uses a platinum hot wire. The hot wire air flow meter
works on the principle that when the electrically heated platinum hot wire is positioned inside the intake
air bypass, the intake air volume can be calculated according to the change in the hot wire temperature.
This change in temperature is measured by the thermistor at the rear of the hot wire. And feedback from
the circuit maintains the hot wire at a set temperature by controlling the current flowing through the hot
wire. This current flow is then measured as the output voltage of the air flow meter. The circuit is
constructed so that the platinum hot wire and the thermistor provide a bridge circuit, with the power transis-
tor controlled so that the potential of (A) or (B) remains equal to maintain the set temperature.

DTC 35 Turbo Pressure Sensor Circuit Barometric Pressure (BARO)
Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
HINT DTC 35 is used to indicate malfunctions in the turbo pressure sensor circuit or BARO sensor circuit.
1. TURBO PRESSURE SENSOR
This sensor detects the air intake chamber pressure and converts the pressure reading into a voltage which
is used to control the turbo pressure by the ECM.
If the ECM detects the below diagnosis conditions, it operates the fail safe function in which the ECM stops
fuel injection at engine speed 2,400 rpm or more and throttle opening angle 20° or more.

2. BARO SENSOR
This sensor is built into the ECM. It is used to detect the atmospheric (absolute) pressure and outputs corre-
sponding electrical signals. Fluctuations in the air pressure cause changes in the intake air density which
can cause deviations in the air±fuel ratio. The signals from BARO sensor are used to make corrections for
the fluctuations. If the ECM detects the below diagnosis conditions, it operates the fail safe function in which
the atmospheric pressure is assumed to be 101.3 kPa (1.03 kgf/cm
2, 14.7 psi).

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT: DTC 35 indicates trouble in the BARO sensor circuit or turbo pressure sensor circuit. Because all func±
tions of the BARO sensor circuit are built into the ECM, it is not possible to check this circuit.
However, if no problem is found in the turbo pressure sensor circuit, it can be concluded that the problem
is in the BARO sensor circuit. EG±550

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The throttle position sensor is mounted in the throttle
body and detects the the throttle valve opening angle.
When the throttle valve is fully closed, the IDL contacts
in the throttle position sensor are on, so the voltage at
the terminal IDL of the ECM becomes 0 V. At this time,
a voltage of approximately 0.7 V is applied to the termi-
nal VTA of the ECM. When the throttle valve is opened,
the IDL contacts go off and thus the power source volt-
age of approximately 12 V in the ECM is applied to the
terminal IDL of the ECM. The voltage applied to the ter-
minal VTA of the ECM increases in the proportion to
the opening angle of the throttle valve and becomes
approximately 3.2 ± 4.9 V when the throttle valve is ful-
ly opened. The ECM judges the vehicle driving condi-
tions from these signals input from the terminals VTA
and IDL, and uses them as one of the conditions for de-
ciding the air±fuel ratio correction, power increase
corrections and fuel±cut control etc. The sub±throttle
position sensor is built and operates in the same way
as the main throttle position sensor. This sensor is
used for traction control. The sub±throttle valve is
opened and closed by the sub±throttle actuator ac-
cording to signals from the TRAC ECU to control the
engine output.

HINT:
Diagnostic trouble code 41 is for the throttle position sensor circuit.
Diagnostic trouble code 47 is for the sub±throttle position sensor circuit.

When the connector for the throttle position sensor(s) is disconnected, diagnostic trouble code 41
or 47 is not displayed. Diagnostic trouble code 41 or 47 is displayed only when there is an open
or short in the VTA signal circuit of the throttle position sensor(s).

Signals from the throttle position sensor(s) are also input to the TRAC ECU, so when a malfunc±
tion occurs on the TRAC side, code 41 or 47 may be displayed.
