Inspection Procedure

HINT:

  1. READ VALUE OF HAND-HELD TESTER OR OBD II SCAN TOOL (INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE) 
    1. Connect the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch ON and push the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool main switch ON.
    3. Select the item "DIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/DATA LIST/ALL/INTAKE AIR" and read its value displayed on the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.

      Temperature: Same value as the actual intake air temperature.

    HINT:

    • If there is an open circuit, the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool indicates -40°C (-40°F).
    • If there is a short circuit, the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool indicates 140°C (284°F) or more.
    1. A: GO TO NEXT STEP. 
    2. B: Go to step   4 
    3. C: CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS (See  PRE-CHECK   ) 
  2. READ VALUE OF HAND-HELD TESTER OR OBD II SCAN TOOL (CHECK FOR OPEN IN WIRE HARNESS) 
    1. Disconnect the M1 mass air flow sensor connector.
    2. Connect terminals THA and E2 of the mass air flow sensor wire harness side connector.

    3. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    4. Select the item "DIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/DATA LIST/ALL/INTAKE AIR" and read its value displayed on the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.

      Temperature value: 140°C (284°F) or more 

    5. Reconnect the mass air flow sensor connector.
    1. OK: CONFIRM GOOD CONNECTION AT SENSOR. IF OK, REPLACE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR 
    2. NG: GO TO NEXT STEP. 
  3. READ VALUE OF HAND-HELD TESTER OR OBD II SCAN TOOL (CHECK FOR OPEN IN ECM) 
    1. Disconnect the M1 mass air flow sensor connector.
    2. Connect terminals THA and E2 of the E8 ECM connector.

      HINT:

      Before checking, do a visual and contact pressure check for the ECM connector.

    3. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    4. Select the item "DIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/DATA LIST/ALL/INTAKE AIR" and read its value displayed on the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.

      Temperature value: 140°C (284°F) or more 

    5. Reconnect the mass air flow sensor connector.
    1. OK: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 
    2. NG: CONFIRM GOOD CONNECTION AT ECM. IF OK, REPLACE ECM (See  REPLACEMENT  in ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM ) 
  4. READ VALUE OF HAND-HELD TESTER OR OBD II SCAN TOOL (CHECK FOR SHORT IN WIRE HARNESS) 
    1. Disconnect the M1 mass air flow sensor connector.

    2. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    3. Select the item "DIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/DATA LIST/ALL/INTAKE AIR" and read its value displayed on the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.

      Temperature value: -40°C (-40°F) 

    4. Reconnect the mass air flow sensor connector.
    1. OK: REPLACE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR 
    2. NG: GO TO NEXT STEP. 
  5. READ VALUE OF HAND-HELD TESTER OR OBD II SCAN TOOL (CHECK FOR SHORT IN ECM) 
    1. Disconnect the E8 ECM connector.
    2. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    3. Select the item "DIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/DATA LIST/ALL/INTAKE AIR" and read its value displayed on the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.

      Temperature value: -40°C (-40°F) 

    4. Reconnect the ECM connector.
