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 okay, but the IAT PID are out of specification, perform the "Circuit Open/Short Inspection".

Circuit Open/Short Inspection
1. Disconnect the PCM connector. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L8, LF, L3].)
2. Inspect the following wiring harnesses for open or short. (Continuity check)
Open circuit
-
• If there is no continuity, the circuit is open. Repair or replace the harness.
-
- MAF/IAT sensor terminal D and PCM terminal 1AT
-
- MAF/IAT sensor terminal E and PCM terminal 1AR
Short circuit
-
• If there is continuity, the circuit is shorted. Repair or replace the harness.
-
- MAF/IAT sensor terminal E and power supply
-
- MAF/IAT sensor terminal D and power supply
-
- MAF/IAT sensor terminal D and body GND
