MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS
TSB Revision
MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <3.0L>
13B-30
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
•
The volume air flow sensor power is supplied
from the MFI relay (terminal 4), and the ground is
provided on the ECM (terminal 34) <M/T> or
PCM (terminal 16) <A/T>.
•
5-volt power is applied to the volume air flow sen-
sor output terminal (terminal 3) from the ECM
(terminal 61) <M/T> or PCM (terminal 65) <A/T>.
The volume air flow sensor generates a pulse
signal when the output terminal and ground are
opened/closed (opened/short).
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
•
While the engine is running, the volume air flow
sensor outputs a pulse signal which corresponds
to the volume of air flow.
•
The ECM <M/T> or PCM <A/T> checks whether
the frequency of this signal output by the volume
air flow sensor while the engine is running is at or
above the set value.
•
When the throttle position sensor output voltage
is low, the ECM <M/T> or PCM <A/T> causes the
power transistor to be "ON" to send an air flow
sensor reset signal to the air flow sensor. In
response to the reset signal, the air flow sensor
resets the filter circuit and improves the ability of
the air flow sensor to measure the amount of air
in a small air intake region.

DTC SET CONDITIONS
Check Conditions
•
Throttle position sensor output voltage is 1.5 volts
or higher.
•
Engine speed is higher than 2,000 r/min.
Judgement Criteria
•
Volume air flow sensor output frequency has con-
tinued to be 60 Hz or lower for 2 seconds.
Check Conditions
•
Throttle position sensor output voltage is 2 volts
or lower.
•
Engine speed is lower than 2,000 r/min.
Judgement Criteria
•
Volume air flow sensor output frequency has con-
tinued to be 800 Hz or higher for 2 seconds.
.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely
causes for this code to be set are:)
•
Volume air flow sensor failed.
•
Open or shorted volume air flow sensor circuit, or
loose connector.
•
ECM failed. <M/T>
•
PCM failed. <A/T>
•
Air leak between volume air flow sensor and
throttle body.
