(a) Read the value of Data List item "Mass Air Flow Sensor" using the Techstream.

NOTICE:

Perform the inspection of the mass air flow meter sub-assembly while it is installed to the air cleaner cap sub-assembly (installed to the vehicle).

(1) Check and ensure the following conditions:

  1. Turn off all electrical loads, such as the air conditioning, etc.
  2. Check that the coolant temperature is 75°C (167°F) or more.
  3. Put the shift lever in the N position.

(2) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(3) Turn the power switch on (IG).

(4) Turn the Techstream on.

(5) Put the engine in Inspection Mode (Maintenance Mode).

Powertrain > Hybrid Control > Utility

(6) Start the engine.

(7) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Mass Air Flow Sensor.

Powertrain > Engine > Data List

(8) According to the display on the Techstream, read the Data List when the engine is running.

NOTICE:

  • Do not contact the mass air flow meter sub-assembly with the nozzle of the air blow gun.
  • Do not insert the nozzle of the air blow gun into the airflow hole.

(1) Using an air blow gun, clean the hole of the mass air flow meter sub-assembly by applying approximately 10 intermittent bursts of air to the airflow hole at a pressure of approximately 392 to 981 kPa (4.0 to 10.0 kgf/cm2, 57 to 142 psi).
