Circuit Description
The heated element on the hot-film air mass meter is a
platinum film resistor (heater). It is located on a ceramic
plate together with the other elements in the bridge cir-
cuit. The temperature sensitive resistor (flow sensor) also
included in the bridge. The separation of heater and flow
sensor facilitates design of the control circuitry. Saw
cuts are employed to ensure thermal decoupling
between the heating element and the intake air temper-
ature sensor. The complete control circuitry is located
on a single layer. The voltage at the heater provides the
index for the mass air flow. The hot film air mass me-
t e r ’ s electronic circuitry then converts the voltage to a
level suitable for processing in the engine control mod-
ule (ECM). This device does not need a burn off pro-
cess to maintain its measuring precision over an
extended period. In recognition of the fact that most de-
posits collect on the sensor element’s leading edge,
the essential thermal transfer elements are located
downstream on the ceramic layer. The sensor element
is also designed to ensure that deposits will not influence
the flow pattern around the sensor.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
•••••
Load threshold is less than 0.02.
•••••
No fault of engine speed.
•••••
Start end reached.
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) P0102
MASS AIR FLOW LOW VOLTAGE (3.2L DOHC)
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
•••••
The Malfunition Indicator Lamp (MIL) will illuminate
after two consecutive driving cycles in which the diag-
nostic runs with the fault active.
•••••
The ECM will record operating conditions at the time
the diagnostic fails. This information will be stored in
the Freeze Frame and Failure Records buffers.
•••••
A history DTC is stored.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
•••••
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will turn off af-
ter three consecutive driving cycles in which the diag-
nostic runs without a fault.
•••••
A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-
up cycles without a fault.
•••••
The DTC(s) can be cleared by using the scan tool.
Diagnostic Aids
An intermittent may be caused by a poor connection,
misrouted harness, rubbed through wire insulation, or a
wire broken inside insulation.
For the load limit monitoring a calculated, which is
proportional to the sensor output voltage, is compared
with on upper threshold value continuously. As soon as
the diagnosis load exceeds the limit, a fault code P0102
is set.
