  • maf sensor plug

    could the maf sensor plug die instead of the maf sensor itself?

    car doesnt run properly with it pluged, but when i unplug the maf it runs.. and i have changed to a new Maf sensor too..

    Connector could be corroded, could be broken wire or not have good contact with the MAF pins.
    See some simple tests. http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/newf...72&postcount=2

    Can you give us more details about the car?

      MAF's probably still gone, my VR6 ran better with it removed when the MAF blew, and even better again with a new MAF.

          Did you put in a new MAF? or a secondhand one?
          Did someone competent clear the codes and reset learned values on the car?
