3. INSPECTION PROCEDURE FOR DIAGNOSIS CODES
Code No. 12 Air flow sensor (AFS) system Probable cause
Range of Check
D
Engine speed is 500 r/min or more.
Set conditions
D
Sensor output frequency is 3 Hz or less for 4 seconds.
D
Malfunction of the air flow sensor
D
Improper connector contact, open circuit or
short-circuited harness wire of the air flow sensor
D
Malfunction of the engine-ECU
Measure at the air flow sensor con-
nector A-25.
D
Connect the connector. (Use
the test harness: MB991709)
1. Voltage between 3 and earth
