Testing my M.A.F and T.P.S ?

[Highmilagecutlass]

What is the correct procedure for testing these sensors off the car ?

Ohms? Continuity ? I also would like to test the I.A.C ?or is it I.A.S. ?

 

The engine is a 1994 3100 in a Cutlass Supreme.

 

Thanks in advance:thumbsup:

Well, the TPS is basically a rheostat, the MAF a heated wire, and the IAC a stepper motor.

 

However, I know of no way someone with basic tools is going to be able to test these off the car. A scantool can help with troubleshooting these devices on a running motor, but for the average guy at home, that's about the only way I can think of to test.

I was able to find some stuff on you tube after I posted this, but it was nothing brand specific and that was only on the T.P.S. but hey I have time !
