The mass air flow (MAF) sensor is integrated with the inlet air temperature (IAT) sensor. The MAF sensor is an air flow meter that measures the amount of air entering the engine. The engine control module (ECM) uses the MAF sensor signal to provide the correct fuel delivery for all engine speeds and loads. The air flow and engine speed are very dependent on the battery pack state of charge. A small quantity of air entering the engine indicates a low load condition. A large quantity of air entering the engine indicates a high load condition.
The ECM applies 5 volts to the MAF sensor on the MAF sensor signal circuit. The sensor uses the voltage to produce a frequency based on the inlet air flow through the sensor bore.
The MAF sensor is supplied power through the powertrain relay and a fuse. The ECM enables the MAF sensor only during engine run mode by grounding the MAF control circuit via a solid state devise called a driver. The ECM monitors the status of the driver. If the ECM detects an incorrect voltage for the commanded state of the driver, a MAF sensor supply voltage control circuit DTC is set.
• | DTCs P0102, P0103, P0107, P0108, P0111, P0112, P0113, P0114, P0116, P0117, P0118, P0119, P0128, P0335, and P0336 are not set. |
• | The engine speed is between 500 and 8,000 RPM. |
• | The IAT Sensor is between -20 and +125°C (-4 and +257°F). |
• | The ECT Sensor is between -7 and +125°C (+19 and +257°F). |
• | This DTC runs continuously within the enabling conditions. |
DTC P1101 is a Type B DTC.
DTC P1101 is a Type B DTC.
• | A steady or intermittent high resistance of 15 Ω or greater on the ignition voltage circuit will cause the MAF sensor signal to be increased by as much as 60 g/s. To pinpoint this condition perform a voltage drop test on the circuit. |
• | Any type of contamination on the MAF sensor heating elements will degrade the proper operation of the sensor. Certain types of contaminants act as a heat insulator, which will impair the response of the sensor to airflow changes. Water or snow can create the opposite effect, and cause the signal to increase rapidly. |
• | Depending on the current ambient temperature, and the vehicle operating conditions, a MAF sensor signal circuit that is shorted to the IAT signal circuit will increase or decrease the MAF sensor signal that is interpreted by the ECM. Additionally it may cause a rapid fluctuation in the IAT Sensor parameter. |
• | Certain aftermarket air filters may cause this DTC to set. |
• | Certain aftermarket air induction systems may cause this DTC to set. |
• | Modifications to the air induction system may cause this DTC to set. |

⇒ | If you find any of the above conditions, repair as necessary. |
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the ignition voltage circuit fuse is open, test or replace the components on the ignition voltage circuit. |
⇒ | If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM. |
⇒ | If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM. |
