squid1 0 Posted May 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 It was a new maf and it is right way! The code comes up twice aswell Link to post Share on other sites
legvw 0 Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Retrace the wiring back as far as you can, and re wire them, getting the wires caught in the belt could have broken the wires further back. Ask tony about maf and wiring problems! Link to post Share on other sites
