| 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.
| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| P0100 | Open or short in mass air flow meter circuit for more than 3 seconds with engine speed at 2,000 rpm or less (1 trip detection logic) |
|
| P0102 | Open in mass air flow meter circuit for more than 3 seconds with engine speed at 2000 rpm or less (1 trip detection logic) |
|
| P0103 | Short in mass air flow meter circuit for more than 3 seconds with engine speed at 2,000 rpm or less (1 trip detection logic) |
Tech Tips
After confirming DTC P0100, P0102, or P0103, check the mass air flow ratio in the "Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / MAF" menu using the intelligent tester.
| Air Flow Value (g/sec.) | Malfunction |

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
READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (MASS AIR FLOW RATE)
Connect an intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Start the engine and turn the tester ON.
Select the following menu items: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / MAF.
Read the value displayed on the intelligent tester.
