P0103 00

Mass Air Flow Circuit. High Input







Fault symptom
- CHECK ENGINE
- Cruise control not working.
- Limp home

On-board diagnosis

Type of diagnosis:
- Continuous

Enable criteria:
- Battery voltage must be between 11 - 16 V.
- Ignition ON.

Fault criteria:
- When the frequency is higher than 11500 Hz on the input.
(High frequency results in low flow)

Dependent:
- None

System reaction to a fault:
- The system continues to function with a calculated air mass instead of the value from the mass air flow sensor.
- Boost pressure adaption is blocked and reset.
- Limited acceleration and idle function.
- Cruise control blocked.
- Secondary air switched off.

OK report:
- Fault criteria NOT fulfilled for 2 s.

Fault handling:
Type III
(See section Fault handling III, "Other emission-related components and functions" for more information.)

Checking the wiring harness
- Move the wiring harness at several spots and in several directions to reveal intermittent breaks and short-circuits. Check switches, connectors and crimp connections for oxidation, retracted pins and pin clamping force.
