  • Inspect the harness of the MAF sensor to verify that it is not routed too close to the following components:
    • The secondary ignition wires or coils
    • Any solenoids
    • Any relays
    • Any motors
  • Inspect for any contamination or debris on the sensing elements of the MAF sensor.
  • A wide open throttle (WOT) acceleration from a stop should cause the MAF sensor parameter on the scan tool to increase rapidly. This increase should be from 3-10 g/s at idle to 150 g/s or more at the time of the 1-2 shift. If the increase is not observed, inspect for a restriction in the induction system or the exhaust system.
  • A high resistance of 15 ohms or more on the ground circuit or the ignition 1 circuit of the MAF sensor may cause this DTC to set. A high resistance may cause a driveability concern before this DTC sets.

If the condition is intermittent, refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections .
