Hey guys what's up. I just got my maft v2.02 the other day and set everything up set it for my injectors(550's), and zeroed out the afc, started the car up and it wouldnt idle so I richened up the idle knob 20% and it started idle wasn't great but no stalling. Then I gave the car some light revs and my airflow signal was cutting out on me (car was acting like a stutter box) and I check the translator it was giving me the 2 blinking lights for no maf signal, so I go to napa and bought a brand new sensor figure I'm good to go now but it keeps doing the same thing. I've tried every setting on the translator and nothing changed. Changed back to my 2g mas and the car runs good. I've posted on full throttle and they told me to send it in for them to check it out, but I'd figured i'd post here and see if anyone else had this problem. Also anybody in north jersey that would be wiiling to let me try their maft just to see if the maft is the problem before I send it back I would really appreciate it b/c I'm lost on this one.:confused:
 
check your GM mas for broken inside wires. sounds like you MAS might be bad.
 
Yeah I've checked that already. I was hoping it would be something like that so I could just go back to napa and exchange it. Even the old one had all the wires intact, but the old one gave the two bliking light and the new one doesn't. I did a voltage test and full throttle said it looks good. Wires to gm maf: pink=12v, yellow=4.9v, black=0v/ wires to vehicle: pink 12v, green=4.9v, black=0v, brown=2.3v, gray=3.8v, white=0v(not connected, using afc for rpm tuning). The only thing I just noticed now with the cover off the maft, when I lightly rev motor the dim green light goes bright like its in the mid trim, and when it does the stuuterbox thing the lights turn off, and if I hit wot the red light doesn't turn on for wot mode. When I turn the car on both light turn on and off for a second like i should but when reving the car the lights go off like it's not connected.
