Resistance Inspection

NOTE:
  • Perform the following inspection only when directed.
  1. Disconnect MAF/IAT sensor.
  2. Measure the resistance between the MAF/IAT sensor terminals D and E using an ohmmeter.
    • If not as specified, replace the MAF/IAT sensor.
    • If the MAF/IAT sensor is normal, but PID are out of specification, perform the "Circuit Open/Short Inspection".
