special patterns probe to VAF sensor connector terminal No. 3 or to
PCM connector terminal No. 61.
2) Start engine. Verify waveform high frequency and low
frequency patterns are of about the same length (time). Verify
wavelength decreases and frequency increases as engine RPM increases.
If conditions are not as specified, replace VAF sensor. If conditions
are as specified, go to step 4).
3) Warm vehicle to normal operating temperature. Ensure
headlights and accessories are off. Using scan tool, read VAF sensor
frequency value (item 12). See VOLUME AIRFLOW SENSOR VALUES table.
Frequency should increase when engine is raced. If values are not as
specified, replace VAF sensor. If values are as specified, turn
ignition switch to off position and disconnect VAF sensor connector.
Go to next step.

4) On 3000GT, go to next step. On Montero, disconnect MFI
relay connector. Using DVOM, check for continuity between VAF sensor
connector terminal No. 4 and MFI relay connector terminal No. 1. If
continuity does not exist, repair wiring harness as necessary. If
continuity exists, go to next step.
5) Using DVOM, check for continuity between chassis ground
and VAF sensor connector terminal No. 5. If continuity does not exist,
repair wiring harness as necessary. If continuity exists, go to next
step.
6) Ensure ignition switch is in OFF position. Disconnect PCM
connector. Ground PCM connector terminal No. 19. Using DVOM, check for
continuity between chassis ground and VAF sensor connector terminal
No. 7. If continuity does not exist, repair wiring harness as
necessary. If continuity exists, go to next step.
7) On 3000GT, go to next step. On Montero, ground PCM
connector terminal No. 61. Using DVOM, check for continuity between
chassis ground and VAF sensor connector terminal No. 3. If continuity
does not exist, repair wiring harness as necessary. If continuity
exists, turn ignition switch to ON position and go to step 9).
8) Turn ignition switch to ON position. Using DVOM, check
voltage between chassis ground and VAF sensor connector terminal No.
4. If battery voltage does not exist, repair wiring harness as
necessary. If battery voltage exists, go to next step.
9) Using DVOM, check voltage between chassis ground and VAF
sensor connector terminal No. 3. If voltage is not 4.8-5.2 volts,
replace PCM. If voltage is as specified, condition required to set DTC
is not present at this time. Go to next step.
10) Test is complete. Intermittent problem may exist. Road
test vehicle (if necessary) and attempt to duplicate conditions that
caused original complaint. Recheck for DTCs. If no DTCs are displayed,
go to INTERMITTENT DTCS .
DTC P0105: BAROMETRIC (BARO) PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT FAILURE
NOTE: BARO pressure sensor is built into Volume Airflow (VAF)
sensor. For DTC P0105 test purposes, VAF sensor will be

GENERATOR OUTPUT TEST
NOTE: A slightly discharged battery should be used, as a fully
charged battery may not allow full generator output.
1) Turn ignition off. Disconnect negative battery cable.
Disconnect generator output wire from terminal "B". Connect positive
lead of 100-amp ammeter to terminal "B" and negative lead to
disconnected output lead.
CAUTION: Tighten each connection securely, as heavy current flow will
exist. DO NOT use clips on ammeter. An inductive-type
ammeter is recommended.
2) Connect positive voltmeter lead (0-20 volts) to generator\
terminal "B" and negative lead to ground. Install a tachometer and
reconnect negative battery cable.
3) Ensure voltmeter indicates battery voltage. If voltage is
not present, check for open circuit in wire between generator terminal
"B" and positive battery terminal. Check grounds and fusible link.
4) Start engine and turn headlights on. Set headlights at
high beam and heater blower switch on HIGH. Increase engine speed to
2500 RPM and note generator output current on ammeter. Minimum output
should be within specification. See
GENERATOR MINIMUM OUTPUT SPECIFICATIONS table.
NOTE: Output voltage changes with electrical load and temperature.
Ensure proper electrical load is applied while checking
output. Nominal output may not be obtained if generator or
ambient temperature is excessive. Allow generator or
temperature to cool, and recheck output. Generator output is
stamped on metal plate attached to generator case.
5) If minimum output is not obtained and generator wiring is
okay, repair generator. Operate engine at idle speed after the test.

NOTE: Ensure battery is fully charged and proper drive belt
tension exists.
1) Turn ignition switch off. Disconnect negative battery
cable. Connect positive voltmeter lead to terminal "S" of generator.
