Using an air blow gun, clean the intake air temperature sensor (thermistor) area of the mass air flow meter sub-assembly by applying approximately 10 intermittent bursts of air to the intake air temperature sensor (thermistor) area at a pressure of approximately 392 to 981 kPa (4.0 to 10.0 kgf/cm2, 57 to 142 psi).

HINT:

After performing cleaning, read the value of Data List item "Mass Air Flow Sensor" using the GTS and if the value is not as specified, replace the mass air flow meter sub-assembly.
