MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-111

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 10: 
Mass Airflow Sensor.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Start the engine and run at idle.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item 

10, Mass Airflow Sensor.

(4) Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature: 80

° C 

to 95

° C (176° F to 203° F).

• The standard value during idling should be between 

1,300 and 1,650 millivolts.

• When the engine is revved, the mass airflow rate should 

increase according to the increase in engine speed.

(5) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

− How to 

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions 

P.00-15

.

NO :  Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check harness connector A-07 at mass airflow 
sensor and harness connector A-34X at MFI relay for 
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 8.

STEP 3. Check for harness damage between MFI relay 
connector A-34X (terminal No. 2) and mass airflow sensor 
connector A-07 (terminal No. 2).
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Repair it. Then go to Step 8.

STEP 4. Check harness connector B-10 at ECM for 
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 8.

STEP 5. Check the continuity at mass airflow sensor 
harness side connector A-07.
(1) Disconnect the connector A-07 and measure at the harness 

side.

(2) Check for the continuity between terminal No. 4 and 

ground.

• Continuity (2 ohms or less)

Q: Does continuity exist?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Repair harness wire between mass airflow sensor 

connector A-07 (terminal No. 4) and ECM connector 
B-10 (terminal No. 88) because of harness damage. 
Then go to Step 8.

STEP 6. Check for harness damage between mass airflow 
sensor connector A-07 (terminal No. 3) and ECM connector 
B-10 (terminal No. 87).
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO :  Repair it. Then go to Step 8.

STEP 7. Replace the mass airflow sensor.
(1) Replace the mass airflow sensor.
(2) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to 

Diagnostic Function 

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Pattern 6 

P.13A-9

.

(3) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0101 set?

YES : Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced, 

register the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, ID Code 
Registration Necessity Judgment Table <Vehicles 
with KOS> 

P.42B-12

 or GROUP 42C, ID Codes 

Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles with WCM> 

P.42C-9

. Then go to Step 8.

NO :  The inspection is complete.

STEP 8. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to 

Diagnostic Function 

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Pattern 6 

P.13A-9

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0101 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO :  The inspection is complete.
