MAF Sensor Out of Self-Test Range

1990-1998 Mazda MPV 3.0L V6

Moderate SeverityPowertrain

Description

The MAF sensor reading is outside the expected range during the PCM self-test. The airflow value does not match expected parameters for the current engine operating conditions during diagnostic testing.

Symptoms

  • Check Engine Light
  • Poor idle quality
  • Hesitation
  • Poor fuel economy
  • Black smoke from exhaust

Common Causes

  • Dirty MAF sensor
  • Vacuum leak after MAF sensor
  • Restricted air filter
  • Faulty MAF sensor
  • Intake air leak between MAF and throttle body

Diagnostic Steps

  1. Check and replace air filter if dirty
  2. Inspect intake ductwork for leaks between MAF and throttle body
  3. Clean MAF sensor with approved cleaner
  4. Check for vacuum leaks with smoke test
  5. Compare MAF readings to specification at idle and 2500 RPM

Repair Notes

Clean or replace the MAF sensor and repair any intake air leaks.
