Using New Generation Star Tester

Using Special Service Tools (NGS)
1. Check the mass air flow sensor for damage and cracks.
2. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature.
3. Shift the selector lever to P.
4. Turn off all electric loads.
- Headlight
- Blower motor
- Rear window defroster
- Power steering

5. Wait until the cooling fan stops.




6. Connect the Special Service Tools New Generation Star (NGS) tester to the data link connector 2.




7. Select the PID/DATA MONITOR AND RECORD function of the NGS.
8. Select "MAF V" on the NGS display. NGS measures and shows the voltage.




9. If not as specified, perform harness continuity inspection:
- Between ECM terminal 3E and mass air flow sensor terminal B
- Between ECM terminal 4D and mass air flow sensor terminal A
- Between ECM terminal 4A and mass air flow sensor terminal C

10. If them is incorrect terminal voltage or harness continuity, replace the mass air flow sensor.




NOTE: The scan tool shows the mass air flow rate and load value.
