safc not connected

[914g63gsx]

K, i did some search but could not find anything. Would not having a sacf1 connected ### my car to run like complete crap, and through a check engine light, not idle and all that. My car was robbed, and the people who did it took that. But it just came unplugged before the ecu wires. And i can not find one to replace it.

Yes, you no longer have a tune. So it will run like shit until you tune it again or throw some 450's back in.

Edit** just looked and you dont even have bigger injectors or you just havent updated your profile yet?

If you just have bolt ons with stock injectors its not gonna make a difference like that to not have it hooked up, cause the ecu can control that stuff just fine. You might have to go through that ecu plug to see whatall got cut.

You have to splice the airflow signal wire back together! And put stock injectors back in.

boom! good call bro. I think its the pink wire?

yes, not having the SAFC plugged in, once installed WOULD make your car run like crap... Reason: With the SAFC installed it actually interrupts your MAF sensor wire that goes to the ECU. The SAFC then takes the MAF sensor's input, throws it's own spin on it and then reports it back to the ECU. That is why the wire needs to be physically cut. With the SAFC out of the loop, your ECU isn't seeing any MAF sensor, thus the CEL.
Temporarily, I'd just reconnect the ECU's MAF wire back to the ECU... Just follow the SAFC wire harness back up to the ECU. Only 1 (the MAF) wire is actually cut. It should have the SAFC's yellow & white wires attached to either side. Once reconnected, your car should run like stock, depending on if you are running aftermarket injectors or not.
Hope that helps
Those dishonest bastard thieves

If this is an actual 1st generation SAFC, then the installation manual can be found here (it illustrates what I'm talking about):

Thanxs so much for the info. I kinda had a guess on the whole going through that and making its own signal, but wasent totally sure thanx again.
