- Harness for open or short between MAF sensor and ECM
Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
CHECK MAF SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
3. Check harness continuity between MAF sensor terminal 3 and ECM terminal 67.
  Refer to WIRING DIAGRAM .
  
  Continuity should exist.
4. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
OK or NG

OK: GO TO 7.

NG: Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
CHECK MAF SENSOR INPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT
1. Check harness continuity between MAF sensor terminal 4 and ECM terminal 51.
  Refer to WIRING DIAGRAM .
  
  Continuity should exist.
2. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
OK or NG

OK: GO TO 8.

NG: Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
CHECK INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Refer to "COMPONENT INSPECTION ".

OK or NG

OK: GO TO 9.

NG: Replace intake air temperature sensor.
CHECK EVAP CONTROL SYSTEM PRESSURE SENSOR
Refer to "COMPONENT INSPECTION ".

OK or NG

OK: GO TO 10.

NG: Replace EVAP control system pressure sensor.
CHECK MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR
Refer to "COMPONENT INSPECTION ".

OK or NG

OK: GO TO 11.

NG: Replace mass air flow sensor.
CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT
Perform "TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENT ".
