Injuneer shoebox help please code100
Today I had got on the car a little to about 5000 then the ses light came on went to autozone they said maf malfunction... I pulled it off cleaned it . Now I reset the Ecm and no code tested the voltage 6.2 volts.. Now by looking at those little springs in it one looks darker brownish, is there anyway you can tell by looking at it.... Oh I cleaned it a week ago, but the guy said check the bellow it might be getting air on in the sides....any other suggestions...
Thanks Angelo

Yes I cleaned it today and it never has come back... but if it was bad it should not return wheather i get on it or not right... at idle. Shoebox those sensors on the maf one is like darker brownish.. is that bad, thats what I meant by the color disfigararion...

Monitoring with a scan tool would be one way of "seeing" if it was operating correctly. If you have no codes and it is running well, then you probably have nothing to worry about. The discoloration could be a stain or who knows what.

ok listen up!
The 6.2 volts was the reading I had got from unplugging the maf connector like shoebox has om his website. And I used the book or manual that you buy from off the shelf at the stores.. it says the voltage range from the maf or to test the maf is buy unplugging the maf and leaving the key in the on position... and it should read 5 to 6 volts...

You mean you got 6.2V on the yellow wire from PCM pin B19. That would prove the PCM, but wouldn't prove that the MAF sensor is producing the correct frequency signal, proportional to air flow. Did you also check for +12V on the pink wire at the MAF harness connector end?
