瀚慖f less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance or a short to ground. If the circuit/connections test
normal, replace the K20 ECM.
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit/connections test normal, replace the K20
ECM.
7. Ignition OFF, connect the red lead of the J 38522 to the signal circuit terminal A at the B75B MAF/IAT sensor harness connector. Connect
the battery voltage supply to B+, and ground the black lead.
8. Set the J 38522 Signal switch to 5 V, the Frequency switch to 5K, and the Duty Cycle switch to Normal.
9. Ignition ON, observe the scan tool MAF Sensor frequency parameter. The parameter should be between 4,950-5,025 Hz.
瀚慖f the parameter is not within the specified range, replace the K20 ECM.
10. If all circuits/connections test normal, replace the B75B MAF/IAT sensor.

Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
The mass air flow (MAF) sensor is located in the air intake duct. The MAF sensor is an airflow meter that measures the amount of air that enters the
engine. The MAF sensor uses a hot film that is cooled by air flowing past the sensing film as air enters the engine. The amount of cooling is
proportional to the amount of the air flow. As the air flow increases, more current is required in order to maintain the hot film at a constant
temperature. The engine control module (ECM) uses the MAF sensor in order to provide the correct fuel delivery for all operating conditions. The
intake air temperature (IAT) sensor is integrated into the MAF sensor.
