MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-37

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 12:
Volume Airflow Sensor.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Start the engine and run at idle.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item

12, Volume Airflow Sensor.

(4) Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature: 80

°C

to 95

°C (176°F to 203°F).

• The standard value during idling should be 10 Hz or

more.

• When the engine is revved, the frequency should

increase according to the increase in engine speed.

(5) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

P.00-6

.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Measure the reset signal voltage at volume airflow
sensor connector B-48 by backprobing.
(1) Do not disconnect the connector B-48.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 7 and ground by

backprobing.

• Voltage should be between 6.0 and 9.0 volts.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage between 6.0 and 9.0 volts?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check connector B-48 at volume airflow sensor
and connector D-133 at PCM for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 9.
