Lexus SC300 / Lexus SC400. Manual — part 675
Diag. Code 31
Air Flow Meter Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
As shown in the figure at right, when a pillar (Vortex
generating body) is placed in the path of a uniform flow,
vortices called Karman–Vortex are generated down-
stream of the object. Using this principle, a vortex gen-
erator is placed inside the air flow meter. By measuring
the frequency of the vortices generated, the ECU can
determine the volume of air flowing through the air flow
meter. The vortices are detected by their exerting pres-
sure on thin metal foil (mirror) surfaces and a light emit-
ting element and light receptor (LED and photo transis-
tor) positioned opposite the mirror which senses the
vibrations in the mirror optically. The ECU uses these
signals mainly for calculation of the basic injection vol-
ume and the basic ignition advance angle.
If the ECU records diagnostic code ”31”, it enters fail safe mode (See page
