MAF Sensor

Display shows the amount of airflow entering the engine in grams per second (g/s) from 0 to 655. The scan tool will display 0 gms/sec only until 4X reference pulses are received,cranking or running. The PCM updates the MAF sensor display only after 4X reference pulses have been received during an ignition cycle. If during an ignition cycle the vehicle were to stall the MAF display would indicate the last airflow reading obtained while 4X reference pulses were present. If no airflow is monitored by the PCM while the vehicle is running the MAF display will default to 1.2 grams per second.
