ok so i cleaned the MAF with the proper cleaner (almost used the whole can) and cleaned the connections really good, but I still have the SES light. I'm guessing it's because bank 1 and 2 are still lean?? IDK this car is stressing me out. any more ideas I could try?? i'm really trying to avoid taking it somewhere

But is the car still acting bad? Even if it resolved the code, the light will stay on for a while.

The only time Ive dealt with this problem and it wasnt a dirty MAF sensor, it was the injectors. Swapped them out with some used ones and it cleared right up.

Reset your computer and wait to see if it comes up with an SES light again.

To reset the computer
1) Turn the key on but do not start car
2) Pull the PCM Batt and PCM IGN fuses in the engine compartment
3) Wait 5 or so minutes
4) Turn Ign off
5) Replace fuses.
6) Start and drive car.
