ECD SYSTEM (w/o EGR Cooler Bypass Valve), Diagnostic DTC:P0100, P0102, P0103

DTC Code DTC Name
P0100 Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit
P0102 Mass Air Flow Circuit Low
P0103 Mass Air Flow Circuit High

DESCRIPTION

The mass air flow meter uses a platinum hot wire. The mass air flow meter consists of a platinum hot wire, a temperature sensor and a control circuit installed in a plastic housing. The mass air flow meter hot wire and temperature sensor (located in the intake air by-pass of the housing) detect changes in the intake air temperature.

The hot wire is maintained at the predetermined temperature by controlling the current flow through the hot wire. This current flow is then related as the output voltage of the mass air flow meter.

The circuit is constructed so that the platinum hot wire and temperature sensor provide a bridge circuit, with the power transistor controlled so that the potential of A and B remains equal to maintain the predetermined temperature.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tech Tips

Read freeze frame data using the intelligent 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, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

Note

If the ECM is replaced, the new ECM needs initialization Click here.

PROCEDURE


  1. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (MASS AIR FLOW RATE)


    1. Connect an intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Start the engine and turn the tester ON.

    3. Select the following menu items: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / MAF.

    4. Read the value displayed on the intelligent tester.

      Result
      Air Flow Rate (g/sec.) Proceed to
      0.0 A
      167.5 or more B

      Between 1 and 167.4*

      C

      Tech Tips

      *: The value must change when the throttle valve is opened or closed.
