Mass Air Flow Meter: Inspection

  1. INSPECT INTAKE AIR FLOW METER 
    1. Check the output voltage.
      1. Apply battery voltage across terminals 1 (+B) and 2 (EVG).
      2. Using a voltmeter, connect the positive (+) tester probe to terminal 3 (VG), and negative (-) tester probe to terminal 2 (EVG).
      3. Blow air into the MAF meter, and check that the voltage fluctuates.
    2. Measure the resistance between terminals 4 (THA) and 5 (ETHA).
