DTC P0100 Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit
DTC P0102 Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit Low Input
DTC P0103 Mass or Volume Air Flow Circuit High Input
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The Mass Air Flow (MAF) meter measures the amount of air flowing through the throttle valve. The ECM uses
this information to determine the fuel injection time and provide a proper air fuel ratio. Inside the MAF meter,
there is a heated platinum wire exposed to the flow of intake air.
By applying a specific current to the wire, the ECM heats this wire to a given temperature. The flow of incom-
ing air cools the wire and an internal thermistor, affecting their resistance. To maintain a constant current
value, the ECM varies the voltage applied to these components in the MAF meter. The voltage level is pro-
portional to the airflow through the sensor. The ECM interprets this voltage as the intake air amount.
The circuit is constructed so that the platinum hot wire and temperature sensor provide a bridge circuit, with
the power transistor controlled so that the potential of A and B remains equal to maintain the set temperature.

DIAGNOSTICS - ENGINE (2UZ-FE)
HINT:
After confirming DTC P0100, P0102 or P0103, use the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool to confirm
the MAF ratio from the ALL menu (to reach the ALL menu: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST
/ ALL).
Mass Air Flow Value (gm/sec.) Malfunction

Approx. 0.0
S VG circuit open or short
271.0 or more S EVG circuit open
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
If there is a defect in the MAF (Mass Air Flow) meter or an open or short circuit, the voltage level will deviate
outside the normal operating range. The ECM interprets this deviation as a defect in the MAF meter and sets
a DTC.
Example:
When the MAF meter voltage output is less than 0.2 V, or more than 4.9 V, and if either the condition contin-
ues for more than 3 sec.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when
a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was
running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other
data from the time when a malfunction occurred.
1 Connect hand-held tester, and read value of mass air flow rate.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON and push the hand-held tester main switch ON.
(c) Start the engine.
(d) When using hand-held tester, enter the following menu: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA
LIST / ALL / MAF.
CHECK:
Read the mass air flow rate on the hand-held tester.
RESULT:
Air Flow Rate (gm/s) Proceed to
