Monitor Description
If there is a defect in the MAF meter or an open or short circuit, the voltage level deviates from the normal operating range. The ECM interprets this deviation as a malfunction in the MAF meter and sets a DTC.
Example:
When the sensor voltage output remains less than 0.2 V, or more than 4.9 V, for more than 3 seconds, the ECM sets a DTC.
Since the monitor runs continuously while the engine is running, a DTC is set 3 seconds after the engine is started if the malfunction has not been repaired successfully.
