U3078 BMW Fault Code

Description:

BMW 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.

U3078 Code Symptoms :

If your U3078 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.

U3078 OBD 2 code on vehicles with electronically controlled automatic transmissions, the 3-4 shift solenoid is responsible for actuating the hydraulic circuits to activate clutches or bands that change gears inside the automatic transmission.

How to fix U3078 code ?

• Failures of clutch motion/travel sensors.
• Faulty spark plug (s)
• Incorrect Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) hose connection
• Incorrect fuel pressure

Some systems require that the actuator has an adequate supply of brake fluid. Low brake fluid levels can mimic the symptoms of code U3078, so consult the manual to locate the brake fluid reservoir.

Bear in mind that a low fluid level can set code U3078 on some applications, so make sure that on fluid operated systems the fluid level is up to the mark before starting an electrical diagnosis.
