Maf problems
« on: 06 July 2016, 20:34 »
Hi all. Its been sometime. Hows everyone? I need some help. I was cleaning my maf and i then managed to brake it. Anyway if i connect it and when the car boosts i get a violent boost cut. So i fitted a "working one" and now the car starts then cuts out (keeps repeating) if i disconnect it and then start the it runs no prob but just runs abit rought every now again but dont cut out. So i just ordered another 1 and its doing the same (car starts then cuts out straight away)

do you have a fault code reader?
you might need to clear the fault manually, it should have sorted itself out but not always

Have you checked the connector plug itself? check nothing is broken and check the wiring
