NOTE:
Airflow meter may also be referred to as Mass Airflow (MAF) meter.
Airflow meter measures intake airflow volume. Input signal for airflow volume is sent from airflow meter to Engine Control Module (ECM). ECM may use input signal for determining ignition timing (spark advance), for controlling fuel injection system and oxygen sensor heater. Airflow meter also contains an intake air temperature sensor which is used to measure intake air temperature. See INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR .
