HINT:
After confirming DTC P0100, P0102 or P0103, use the hand±held tester or the OBD II scan tool to confirm
the MAF ratio from the ALL menu (to reach the ALL menu: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST
/ ALL).
Mass Air Flow Value (gm/sec.)Malfunction
Approx. 0.0Mass air flow meter power source circuit open
VG circuit open or short
271.0 or moreEVG circuit open
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
If there is a defect in the MAF (Mass Air Flow) meter or an open or short circuit, the voltage level will deviate
outside the normal operating range. The ECM interprets this deviation as a defect in the MAF meter and sets
a DTC.
Example:
When the MAF meter voltage output is less than 0.2 V, or more than 4.9 V, and if either the condition contin-
ues for more than 3 sec.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when
a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was
running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air±fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other
data from the time when a malfunction occurred.
1 Connect hand±held tester, and read value of mass air flow rate.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON and push the hand±held tester main switch ON.
(c) Start the engine.
(d) When using hand±held tester, enter the following menu: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA
LIST / ALL / MAF.
CHECK:
Read the mass air flow rate on the hand±held tester.
RESULT:

After engine is warmed up, conditions (a), (b), (c) and (d) con-
tinue for more than 10 seconds:
(2 trip detection logic)
(a) Throttle valve fully closed
(b) Voltage output of the mass air flow meter is more than 2.2
V.
(c) Engine coolant temperature is more than 70 °C (158 °F).
(d) Engine speed is less than 2,000 rpm.
Mass air flow meter
Conditions (a), (b) and (c) continue for more than 10 seconds
at engine speed: (2 trip detection logic)
(a) Engine speed is more than 300 rpm.
(b) Voltage output of the mass air flow meter is less than 1.0 V.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The MAF (Mass Air Flow) meter helps the ECM calculate the amount of air flowing through the throttle valve.
The ECM uses this information to determine the fuel injection time and provide a proper air fuel ratio. Inside
the MAF meter, there is a heated platinum wire exposed to the flow of intake air. By applying a specific current
to the wire, the ECM heats this wire to a given temperature. The flow of incoming air cools the wire and an
internal thermistor, affecting their resistance. To maintain a constant current value, the ECM varies the volt-
age applied to these components in the MAF meter. The voltage level is proportional to the air flow through
the MAF meter. The ECM interprets this voltage as the intake air amount. If there is a defect in the MAF meter
or an open or short circuit, the voltage level will deviate outside the normal operating range. The ECM inter-
prets this deviation as a defect in the MAF meter and sets a DTC.
Example:
If the voltage is more than 2.2 V at idle or less than 1.0 V at idle OFF, the ECM interprets this as a defect
in the MAF meter and sets a DTC.
