Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Diagnostic Aids
Perform this test when directed by QUICK TEST. This test is intended to diagnose the following:
- MAF Sensor
- Wiring Harness Circuits (VPWR, PWR GND, MAF SIG & MAF RTN)
- Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
To prevent replacement of good components, be aware the following non-EEC related areas may be cause of concern:
- Air Cleaner Element
- Inlet Air Duct
- Throttle Body
For DTC P0102, a MAF V PID (MAF PID) reading less than 0.23 volt in Continuous Memory, or KOEO and KOER indicates a hard fault. For DTC P0103, a MAF V PID (MAF PID) reading less than 4.6 volts in Continuous Memory, or KOEO and KOER indicates a hard fault. Refer to illustration for specifications. See Figure.
