TEST ACTION APPLICABILITY
1 NOTE: Inspect the turbocharger inlet tube between the MAF Sensor and the
turbocharger for damage, restriction or poor connection. Any of these
conditions can cause a MAF Plausibility DTC.
NOTE: If the ECM detects and stores a DTC, the ECM also stores the
engine/vehicle operating conditions under which the DTC was set. Some of
these conditions are displayed on the DRB at the same time the DTC is
displayed.
NOTE: Before erasing stored DTCs, record these conditions. Attempting to
duplicate these conditions may assist when checking for an active DTC.
Turn the ignition on.
With the DRBIIIt, erase the ECM DTCs.
Test drive the vehicle.
With the DRBIIIt, read the ECM DTCs.
