maf sencor help
maf sencor help
well had the trc light bling on and off this morning an the way to work and it got a fault code on the maf sensor. is this the air meter sencor or is the maf sensor hidden from sight. was running very rich and going itto limp mode when i hit 3000 rmp and the turbo starts cutting in
The maf sensor is on the intake pipe its rectangle with rounded edges helf on by 2 screws
Once off you can look inside it and see some small electrical prongs, clean these with some electrical contact cleaner and get
A small cotton bud and gently brush off any remaining dirt, dry it off and reattach. That should solve the problem
mate mine is now moved around because of the turbo
i'm not sure were it would sit. i got told that i have a air flow temp sensor that you can see sitting in the t hose next to the air filter... is it this one
Oh didn't realise that sorry mate and I can't quite tell from the picture as I'm on my phone and its all squasshed sorry mate
is the maf sensor sitting in the air filter box normal. black with 2 wires on it. about 2" long and just a black probe
That's an IS200, right ? In which case it has a MAP sensor, not a MAF sensor. It shouldn't need cleaning (unlike a MAF sensor).
It's located towards the throttle body, on the inlet side. Will try and find a better pic/diagram.
What was the code exactly ?
Here's a diagram, it's the "vacuum sensor" in this one - http://bahamutcars.free.fr/workshop/IS_9...i_0060.pdf
(would edit, but I can't)
Have you got a secondary MAP sensor, e.g. add-on or integrated into an ECU ? Because the stock MAP sensor won't be able to handle your boost from the turbo.
so am i looking at the vacum sensor.... maf or air tempture maf.
what one is the maf sensor
