P0101 Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit Range/Performance
P0102 Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit Low Input
P0103 Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit High Input
Description
The Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor is incorporated into the airbox, and measures both intake air flow rate and
Intake Air Temperature (IAT). The MAF sensor uses a hot wire exposed to the airflow, which is maintained at a
constant temperature by a constant current flow. This is achieved within the sensor unit by varying the voltage
applied to the hot wire. This voltage is the output signal from the MAF sensor.
