| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| P0102 | Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit Low Input |
| P0103 | Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit High Input |
DESCRIPTION
The Mass Air Flow (MAF) meter consists of a platinum hot wire, a temperature sensor and a control circuit installed in a plastic housing. The temperature sensor (located in the intake air by-pass of the housing) detects the intake air temperature.
There is little variation in the output from the mass air flow meter, as it is hardly affected by the resistance of the wire harness.
The internal circuit of the mass air flow meter contains a hot wire and cold wire. A voltage is output through a bridge circuit (refer to the illustration) indicating the cooling of the hot wire according to the intake air amount. This voltage is then converted into a periodic signal by the periodic signal conversion circuit and output to the ECM. The frequency varies between approximately 250 to 11000 Hz depending on the air flow rate. The ECM calculates the mass air flow rate based on this frequency.
| DTC Detection Drive Pattern | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| Engine speed between 750 to 2500 rpm | Generated pulse period is 50 μsec. or less (MAF value is extremely high). (1 trip detection logic) |

Tech Tips
If DTC P0102 is stored, the following symptoms may appear (as the ECU mistakenly determines that there is less air than the actual intake air amount, EGR is decreased to match the target EGR):
Combustion noise worsens
If DTC P0103 is stored, the following symptoms may appear (as the ECU mistakenly determines that there is more air than the actual intake air amount, EGR is increased to match the target EGR):
Misfire
White smoke
Black smoke

Note
When replacing the ECM, the ECM needs Registration and Initialization Click here.
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
Tech Tips
When the ECM must be replaced, before replacing the ECM, perform the "Learning Values Save" function using the intelligent tester. Then after installing the new ECM, perform all of the initialization/registrations for the "Learning Values Write" function by following the instructions shown on the tester display.
Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
