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 stores DTC(s).
Example:
When the sensor output voltage remains at below 0.2 V, or higher than 4.9 V for more than 3 seconds, the ECM stores DTC(s).
If the malfunction is not repaired successfully, a DTC is stored 3 seconds after the engine is next started.
