Mass Airflow (MAF) Sensor

MAF sensor uses a hot-wire type sensing element. Incoming air passing through sensor causes hot wire to cool. As a result, ECM or PCM must apply additional current to maintain hot wire at a preprogrammed temperature. ECM or PCM measures airflow by monitoring amount of additional current required to maintain hot wire at preprogrammed temperature.
