On-Vehicle Inspection
NOTE:
- Perform the mass air flow meter inspection according to the procedures below.
- Only replace the mass air flow meter when both the LONG FT#1 value and MAF value in the DATA LIST (with the engine stopped) are not within the normal operating range.
- INSPECT MASS AIR FLOW METER
- Perform confirmation driving pattern.
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Turn the tester ON.
- Clear the DTCs (see DTC CHECK/CLEAR ).
- Start the engine and warm it up with all the accessory switches OFF (until the engine coolant temperature is 75°C (167°F) or more).
- Drive the vehicle at 50 km/h (31 mph) or more for 3 to 5 minutes *1.
- Allow the engine to idle for 2 minutes *2.
- Perform steps *1 and *2 at least 3 times.
- Read the value using the intelligent tester (LONG FT#1).
- Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / PRIMARY / LONG FT #1.
- Read the values displayed on the tester.
Standard value: Within -15 to +15%
If the result is not within the specified range, perform the inspection below.
- Read the value using the intelligent tester (MAF).NOTE:
- Turn off the engine.
- Perform the inspection with the vehicle indoors and on a level surface.
- Perform the inspection of the mass air flow meter while it is installed into the air cleaner case (installed on the vehicle).
- During the test, do not use the exhaust air duct to perform suction on the exhaust pipe.
- Turn the ignition switch to ACC.
- Turn the ignition switch ON (do not run the engine).
- Turn the tester ON.
- Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / PRIMARY / MAF.
- Wait 30 seconds, and read the values on the intelligent tester.
Standard condition: Less than 0.28 g/sec
- If the result is not as specified, replace the mass air flow meter.
- If the result is within the specified range, investigate the cause of the extremely rich or lean air fuel ratio (see DTC P0171 SYSTEM TOO LEAN (BANK 1); DTC P0172 SYSTEM TOO RICH (BANK 1) ).
- Perform confirmation driving pattern.
