Inspection Procedure

HINT:

If different DTCs that are related to different systems are output simultaneously while terminal E2 is used as a ground terminal, terminal E2 may be open.
Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

Connect hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool, and read value of intake air temperature.
PREPARATION:
1. Connect the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool to the DLC3.
2. Turn the ignition switch ON. Push the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool main switch ON.
3. On the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool, enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / ALL / INTAKE AIR.
CHECK:

Read the temperature value on the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.

OK:

Same value as the actual air intake temperature.

HINT:
- If there is open circuit, hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool indicates -40°C (-40°F).
- If there is short circuit, hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool indicates 140°C (284°F) or more.
1. NG: -40°C (-40°F) ..... Go to step 2. 140°C (284°F) or more ..... Go to step 4 .
2. OK: Check for intermittent problems (see PRE-CHECK ).
Check for open in harness or ECM.
PREPARATION:
1. Disconnect the MAF meter connector.
2. Connect the terminals THA and E2 of the MAF meter wire harness side connector.
3. Connect the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool to the DLC3.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON.
5. Push the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool main switch ON.
6. On the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool, enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / ALL / INTAKE AIR.

CHECK:

Read the temperature value on the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.

OK:

Temperature value: 140°C (284°F) or more
1. OK: Confirm good connection at sensor. If OK, replace MAF meter.
2. NG: Go To Next Step.
Check for open in harness or ECM.
PREPARATION:
1. Disconnect the MAF meter connector.
2. Connect terminals THA and E2 of the ECM connector.

  HINT:
  
  Before checking, do a visual and contact pressure check for the ECU connector.
3. Connect the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool to the DLC3.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON.
5. Push the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool main switch ON.
6. On the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool, enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / ALL / INTAKE AIR.
CHECK:

Read the temperature value on the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.

OK:

Temperature value: 140°C (284°F) or more
1. OK: Open in harness between terminals E2 or THA, repair or replace harness.
2. NG: Confirm good connection at ECM. If OK, replace ECM (see ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM) ).
Check for short in harness and ECM.
PREPARATION:
1. Disconnect the MAF meter connector.
2. Connect the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool to the DLC3.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON.
4. Push the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool main switch ON.
5. On the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool, enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / ALL / INTAKE AIR.

CHECK:

Read the temperature value on the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.

OK:

Temperature value: -40°C (-40°F)
1. OK: Replace MAF meter.
2. NG: Go To Next Step.
Check for short in harness or ECM.
PREPARATION:
1. Disconnect the E6 ECM connector.
2. Connect the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool to the DLC3.
  HINT:
  
  The MAF meter connector is disconnected.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON.
4. Push the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool main switch ON.
5. On the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool, enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST / ALL / INTAKE AIR.
CHECK:

Read the temperature value on the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool.

OK:

Temperature value: -40°C (-40°F)
