Can a bad MAF sensor cause a bad transmission?
You may have a bad MAF sensor if you notice one or more of the following symptoms: On some vehicle models, the MAF sensor also informs the computer about air intake temperature and engine load (to control some automatic transmission functions). So a bad MAF sensor on these cars can cause an even wider range of symptoms.
What should the voltage be on a MAF sensor?
Depending on your MAF sensor, your voltage reading should be between 0.60 to 0.80 volts at idle. If your reading indicates 12 volts or pretty close to it, you are probing the power wire, not the signal wire).
Where is the MAF sensor on a Nissan?
Nissan MAF sensor is located right next to the engine air filter housing, typically on the driver’s side. Unplug the electrical connector from your Nissan mass airflow sensor. Watch the following video on how to remove the air filter box to access the MAF sensor.
What’s the voltage of the Nissan mass air flow sensor?
Nissan’s mass airflow sensor sends a voltage to the powertrain control module (PCM). The hot wire sensors typically have an operating range of 0 – 5 volts. At idle, the voltage under 1 volt. At full throttle, voltage is normally between 4 and 5 volts.

What does p0101 mean on the Nissan Altima?
With the Nissan Altima, P0101 means the the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor has a Range/Performance problem.
What should the MAF reading be at idle?
With the engine at idle, the MAF’s PID value should read anywhere from 2 to 7 grams/second (g/s) at idle and rise to between 15 to 25 g/s at 2500 rpm, depending on engine size. Most manufacturers provide specifications for air flow at idle; some will provide specifications at several engine speeds.
