Well, this entire problem is completely and utterly my fault and was fully avoidable, had I just taken the time to think... But, I didn't and here I am now, crying out for help to the great DSM Gurus who know much more than me.

Recently, I reverse-powered my car (so dumb) and blew the ECU. I replaced the ECU and had it socketed through ECMLink. They also installed my DSMLink V2 chip and assured me that it is working correctly. So I got the ECU back, installed it, and the car started. Loaded up my DSMLink tune and unfortunately the car continued to run extremely rich. Captured some data with DSMLink, and found out that my airflow is at 0. My questions are, could my stupid reverse-power mistake cause a particular fuse to blow that might be related to the airflow? Is there something in the MAS that might be blown? Or is there something else that may be causing my airflow to be 0 and the car to run like crap?

Thanks in advance!
 
Yes it could cause any number of fuses to blow. I would check all of the fuses in the car just to be safe. So you don't go later on and run into the same thing.
 
Thanks. I'll do that.

Otherwise could it have totally messed up the MAS? Is there a way to test if the MAS is working?
