DTC P0101: MAF Sensor Circuit Range/Performance Problem (2013-15)
- Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information - Refer to: How to Troubleshoot the Fuel and Emissions Systems (2013-15), or How to Troubleshoot the A/T System (2013-15) .
- If DTC P1128, P1129, P2228, and/or P2229 are stored at the same time as DTC P0101, troubleshoot those DTCs first, then recheck for DTC P0101.

| P0101 MAF Sensor Circuit Range/Performance Problem |
DTC (PGM-FI)
- Parts condition check:
Check for poor connections or damage to these parts:
- PCV hose
- Intake air duct
- Air cleaner
- Purge (PCS) line
- Brake booster
- Brake booster hose
Are the parts OK?
YES
Go to step 2.
NO
Repair or replace the damaged part(s), then do the repair verification.
- Intake air duct visual check:
Check for damage or looseness of the intake air duct in the air cleaner.
Is it OK?
YES
Go to step 3.
NO
Reconnect or replace the intake air duct in the air cleaner, then do the repair verification.
- Air cleaner element visual check:
Check for a dirty air cleaner element.
Is it dirty?
YES
Replace the air cleaner element , then do the repair verification.
NO
Go to step 4.
- MAF sensor signal check (without engine running):
Press the engine start/stop button to select the OFF mode.
- 2. Press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
- 3. Check the parameter(s) below with the HDS.
Signal Threshold Current conditions Values Unit Values Unit MAF SENSOR About 0.2 g/s Do the current condition(s) match the threshold?
YES
Go to step 5.
NO
Replace the MAF sensor/IAT sensor , then do the repair verification.
- MAF sensor signal check (with engine running):
Start the engine.
- 2. Vary the engine speed between 2, 000 rpm and 3, 000 rpm.
- 3. Check the MAF SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the HDS.
Signal Current conditions Values Unit MAF SENSOR Does the reading change?
YES
Go to step 6.
NO
Replace the MAF sensor/IAT sensor , then do the repair verification.
- MAF sensor check:
Hold the engine speed at 3, 000 rpm without load (in P or N) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
- 2. Test-drive the vehicle for several minutes in the range of these recorded freeze data parameters:
- ENGINE SPEED
- VEHICLE SPEED
- MAP SENSOR
- TP SENSOR
Freeze Data
Signal Current conditions Values Unit ENGINE SPEED VEHICLE SPEED MAP SENSOR TP SENSOR - 3. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0101 with the HDS.
DTC Description OBD STATUS P0101 MAF Sensor Circuit Range/Performance Problem Does the HDS indicate FAILED?
YES
Replace the MAF sensor/IAT sensor , then do the repair verification.
NO
If the HDS indicates PASSED, intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the MAF sensor/IAT sensor and the PCM. If the HDS indicates NOT COMPLETED, go to step 6-2 and recheck.
- Repair verification (OBD STATUS check):1.
Press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
- 2. Reset the PCM with the HDS - Refer to: How to Troubleshoot the Fuel and Emissions Systems (2013-15), or How to Troubleshoot the A/T System (2013-15) .
Reset PCM
- 3. Do the PCM idle learn procedure .
- 4. Test-drive the vehicle for several minutes in the range of these recorded freeze data parameters:
- ENGINE SPEED
- VEHICLE SPEED
- MAP SENSOR
- TP SENSOR
Signal Current conditions Values Unit ENGINE SPEED VEHICLE SPEED MAP SENSOR TP SENSOR - 5. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0101 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
DTC Description OBD STATUS P0101 MAF Sensor Circuit Range/Performance Problem DTC (PGM-FI)
Does the HDS indicate PASSED, FAILED, or NOT COMPLETED?
PASSED
Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
FAILED
Go to step 1 and recheck.
NOT COMPLETED
Meet the test condition, and check the OBD STATUS again.
