Mass Air Flow Sensor (MAFS)
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
The mass air ¯ow sensor is placed in the stream of intake air. It
measures the intake air ¯ow rate by measuring a part of the entire
intake air ¯ow. It consists of a hot wire that is supplied with electric
current from the ECM. The temperature of the hot wire is controlled
by the ECM a certain amount. The heat generated by the hot wire
is reduced as the intake air ¯ows around it. The more air, the
greater the heat loss.
Therefore, the ECM must supply more electric current to the hot
wire as air ¯ow increases. This maintains the temperature of the hot
wire. The ECM detects the air ¯ow by means of this current change.

Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
The engine coolant temperature sensor is used to detect the engine
coolant temperature. The sensor modi®es a voltage signal from the
ECM. The modi®ed signal returns to the ECM as the engine cool-
ant temperature input. The sensor uses a thermistor which is sen-
sitive to the change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the
thermistor decreases as temperature increases.

ture
