Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B75B Mass Air Flow/Intake Air Temperature sensor.
  2. Ignition OFF and all systems OFF. It may take up to for 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down. Test for less than 2 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal D and ground.
    • If 2 Ω or greater 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the low reference circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open or high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If less than 2 Ω 
  3. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the intake air temperature sensor signal circuit terminal E and ground.
    • If less than 4.8 V 
    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance
    3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If greater than 5.2 V 
      NOTE:

      If the signal circuit is shorted to a voltage the engine control module or the sensor may be damaged.

    1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.
    2. Ignition ON, test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit and ground.
      • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
    • If between 4.8-5.2 V 
  4. Test or replace the B75B Mass Air Flow/Intake Air Temperature sensor.
