3. Using a voltmeter, connect the positive (+) tester probe to terminal VG, and negative (-) tester probe to terminal E2G.
4. Blow air into the MAF meter, and check that the voltage fluctuates.

   If operation is not as specified, replaced the MAF meter.

5. Turn the ignition switch LOCK.
6. Disconnect the MAF meter connector.
