Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Intermittent The MAF sensor circuit is monitored by the PCM for sudden voltage (or air flow) input change through the comprehensive component monitor (CCM). If during the last 40 warm-up cycles in key ON engine running the PCM detects a voltage (or air flow) change beyond the minimum or maximum calibrated limit, a continuous memory diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored.
Some systems require that the actuator has an adequate supply of brake fluid. Low brake fluid levels can mimic the symptoms of code B3079, so consult the manual to locate the brake fluid reservoir. Bear in mind that a low fluid level can set code B3079 on some applications, so make sure that on fluid operated systems the fluid level is up to the mark before starting an electrical diagnosis.
If your shift/timing solenoid malfunction/ 3-2 shift solenoid circuit electrical check engine light is illuminated, it's best to take it in for diagnostic testing, which can feel like a hassle. Because while the lights vary in appearance from vehicle to vehicle, all have the same basic meaning: There's a problem with the car's emissions system. The on-board diagnostics system B3079 and engine control unit are in charge of monitoring a bunch of different shift/timing solenoid malfunction/ 3-2 shift solenoid circuit electrical, and if they get a reading that's a little out of whack, up pops the check engine light.
