.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• The mass airflow sensor power is supplied from

the MFI relay (terminal No. 2), and the ground is
provided on the ECM (terminal No. 88).

• A voltage that is according to the mass airflow

rate is sent to the ECM (terminal No. 87) from the
mass airflow sensor output terminal (terminal No.
3).

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• While the engine is running, the mass airflow

sensor outputs voltage which corresponds to the
mass airflow rate.

• The ECM checks whether the voltage output by

the mass airflow sensor while the engine is run-
ning is within a specified range.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

Compare load value with mass airflow sensor output

voltage.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION

Continuous

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <3.0L ENGINE>

13B-148

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 10:
Mass 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

10, Mass 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 between

1,350 and 1,670 millivolts.

• When the engine is revved, the mass airflow rate 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

− How to

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions

P.00-15

.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check harness connector A-07 at the mass airflow
sensor and harness connector B-11 at the ECM for
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector

Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 5.
