Circuit/System Testing

  1. Verify that DTCs P0685, P0690 or B1380 are not set.
  2. Verify the integrity of the air induction system by inspecting for the following conditions:
    • Loose or improper installation
    • Water intrusion
  3. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B75B MAF/IAT sensor.
  4. Ignition OFF, all vehicle systems OFF, this may take up to 2 minutes, test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit terminal B and ground.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  5. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal C and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
    • If the circuit tests normal and the fuse is open, test all the components connected to the circuit, and repair or replace as necessary.
  6. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the signal circuit terminal A and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
  7. Ignition OFF, connect the red lead of the EN-38522:  Variable Signal Generator to the signal circuit terminal A at the B75B MAF/IAT sensor harness connector. Connect the battery voltage supply to B+, and the black lead to ground.
  8. Set the EN-38522:  Variable Signal Generator signal to 5 V, the Frequency to 5K, and the Duty Cycle to Normal.
  9. Engine idling, observe the scan tool MAF Sensor parameter. The scan tool MAF Sensor parameter should be between 4,950-5,050 Hz.
    • If the MAF Sensor parameter is not within the specified range, replace the K20 ECM.
  10. If all other circuits test normal, replace the B75B MAF/IAT sensor.
