SES light out now
 
Hello all,

Scratch the SES light problem. I don't even want to say what it was, but in case you run into a similar dumb-ass like myself at least you'll be able to tell them where to look. The last time it died, it finally lit the SES light. I checked the code and it finally gave me 34 for the MAF sensor. I had to run to catch a ride, slapped the plastic plate back up over the access to the fuse area, and never took the paper clip out. :oops: :oops: :oops:

I'll tell ya, some days it just don't pay to drag your butt from bed.

Anyways, I've driven it a little, I'll replace the wires and plugs soon. However, it is still running rough, and seems to be laboring somewhat to keep idle. I think my stalling problem is gone for the moment, I'll have to see, but I'm wonder what else I could test? Can I test the MAF sensor somehow to make sure that it is functioning properly now that I've replaced it?

Over the last year and a half I've become convinced there must be a short somewhere that is causing all the problems but I don't know how to detect it or find it.

Thanks for your time.
