MAF Pigtail

Postby norbs » Sat Jan 10, 2015 10:25 am

Looks like the MAF plug is a bit off. Noticed my fuel trims go out of whack and the MAF voltage at idle was high. Jiggled the wiring of the MAF connector plug and back to normal. This has happened a couple of times (I also made sure I re-seated the plug properly). So question is can I get a MAF plug pigtail so I can re-wire it in? Anyone know where to get one from? This is for the 5-pin Denso MAF sensor.

Maybe try cleaning the contacts with contact cleaner and check the wires with a multimeter in continuity mode.
Also check the maf o ring is seated properly and not pinched.

Pm me if u need a hand :)

Thanks Benny. Tried all that. Definately seems like a broken contact or wire. Light movement on the wire causes the voltage to change. Seen another guy on lgt forum have a similar issue. Will probably source a spare from a wrecker and solder it in.
