How to test a Ford mass air flow sensor?

How to test a Ford mass air flow sensor?

Raise the engine speed. If the MAF electrical connector is functioning there should be a steady fluctuation in the signal voltage up to around 2 volts. Turn the engine and ignition off. Disconnect the electrical connector from the MAF sensor.

What are the symptoms of a bad MAF sensor?

This list is not all inclusive but it does contain the most common symptoms of a BAD MAF sensor are: The CHECK ENGINE LIGHT (CEL) on your instrument cluster is lit nice and bright with one of the following codes: P0101 Mass Air Flow System Performance. P0102 Mass Air Flow Low Frequency.

What kind of multimeter do I need to test MAF sensor?

Use a digital multimeter for all tests where a multimeter is called for. The MAF sensor produces an analog voltage signal. This MAF signal’s DC voltage is directly related to amount of air the engine is breathing.

Can a mass air flow sensor be tested without a scan tool?
