Component  | Description  | 
|---|
B75C Multifunction Intake Air Sensor  | The assembly has several functions: - The mass air flow sensor is a hot film type sensor that measures the mass of air (not the volume) entering the engine. The signal varies with engine load and is displayed by the scan tool in Hertz (Hz) and grams per second (g/s).
 - The intake air humidity sensor uses the same signal circuit as the intake air temperature sensor 2. The intake air humidity sensor modulates the pulse width of the signal. The intake air temperature sensor 2 modulates the frequency of the signal. That means the signal is both, PWM and FM modulated.
 - The barometric pressure sensor generates an analog voltage that is proportional to the ambient air pressure.
 - The intake air temperature sensor 1 varies its resistance depending on the temperature.
 
  | 
K20 Engine Control Module  | The control module controls a series of actuators to ensure optimal vehicle performance. The control module does this by reading values from a variety of sensors, interprets the data and adjusts the propulsion system actuators accordingly.  | 
The barometric pressure sensor is integrated into the multifunction intake air sensor.

Circuit/System Verification- Ignition » On / Vehicle » In Service Mode
 - Verify DTC P0106, P0107, P0108, P0641, P0651, P0697, P06A3, P06D2 is not set
 - If none of the DTCs are set
 
- Determine the current vehicle testing altitude.
 - Verify the scan tool parameter:
 - If not in the specified range
 
- If in the specified range
 
- Verify the scan tool parameter:BARO=The value should not spike or drop out.
Perform the action while monitoring the parameter:
 - Wiggle the harness and connector(s):B75C Multifunction Intake Air Sensor
 - Wiggle the harness and connector(s):@K20 Engine Control Module
 
- If the value does not spike or drop out
 
- Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
 - Verify the DTC does not set.
 - All OK.
