Component Location
Description
1. General Description

The mass air flow sensor (MAFS) has an intake air temperature sensor built-in and is located between the air cleaner assembly and the throttle device. The MAFS uses a hot film type sensing-element to measure the mass of intake air entering the engine. And send the signal to ECM. A large amount of intake air represents acceleration or high load conditions while a small amount of intake air represents deceleration or idle. The ECM uses this information to control the EGR solenoid valve and correct the fuel amount.

2. DTC Description

If an unusually low or high airflow rate is being read by the MAFS, or there are airflow readings that do not correspond to the expected engine load (too high or too low) during two driving cycles, these codes will be set and the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) will be turned on.
