INSPECTION
INSPECT MASS AIR FLOW METER
a. Output voltage inspection.
1. Apply battery voltage across terminals 1 (+B) and 2 (E2G).
2. Connect the position (+) tester probe to terminal 3 (VG), and negative (-) tester probe to terminal 2 (E2G).
3. Blow air into the MAF meter, and check that the voltage fluctuates.
b. Resistance inspection.
1. Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals 4 (THA) and 5 (E2).

- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
