NOTE:
- Perform the following inspection only when directed.
- Disconnect MAF/IAT sensor.
- Measure the resistance between the MAF/IAT sensor terminals D and E using an ohmmeter.
- If not as specified, replace the MAF/IAT sensor.
- If the MAF/IAT sensor is normal, but PID are out of specification, perform the "Circuit Open/Short Inspection".
