    If you unplug the maf whole ifling and the enhine stalled. That means its functioning fine right, and if you unplug it and nothing happen thats means it a bad maf?

      @@barbarabrown5699make sure your filters are changed and most important part is that the MAFS is protected. I had a new air filter but didn’t realize there was corrosion around the seal of the housing and would not seal with the filter in it, and was allowing a lot of harmful air float into towards sensor and possibly cabin was also causing health issues.

    Okay if you can please help me out I have a 2009 Chevy Impala 3.5 the main code that comes up is P0455 all the changes I did was a fuel tank Cap Fuel foot pedal accelerator massive air flow sensor purge valve fuel vent solenoid the car runs and purrs like a kitten other than the engine light keep on coming on so I ordered a pigtail wire harness for the massive air flow sensor so hopefully that fix the problem but like I said it doesn't stall or anything like that before I put in the fuel vent solenoid and the car was running with the engine light on I took off the gas cap and a whole bunch of pressure came out I had to use my scanner to delete the code and then the fuel will go back in I don't know what else to do I change like five or six different things on this and my last option is the wiring harness on the mass air flow sensor someone told me to do a smoke test on it the only thing I was trying to avoid is to drop the tank and do a fuel pressure sensor gauge butt there's like 11 different codes showing up but the main code is P0455 it starts up right away it doesn't hesitate does not stall it runs perfect so if you can give me advice I would highly appreciate it

    Code readers are near worthless. Any number of different sensors cause the same problems.
    What we need is a code reader that tells you what sensor is bad.
    A reader that you can directly plug each individual sensor and see if it is good or bad.
    A reader specifically for that car and year.
    I have two Mercedes. I bought a specific code reader for that car $800 bucks. Still it was not helpful.
    Dealers, who spend, many thousands of dollars, are the only ones who may be specific to an individual sensor.
    I can measure ohms in comparison to one sensor to another, but that isn't fool proof either, when the sensor can't be tested under a voltage load.

      The FIXED will tell you everything in plain English it will tell you the code what causes the code to go off and what sensor is bad. In my case. I had lean banks 1 and 2 not getting enough fuel in the combustion chamber. I looked on you tube to see what causes that error. It came up with not enough fuel check line filter. Check pressure on fuel pump. Vacuum leak or bad MAF sensor. I disconnected the MAF, and the truck stayed running. I CHANGED out the MAF and the light went off problem solved.now I can pass my emissions test.😊

    Hi i got a code p219e on my honda accord sport 1.5l if i change coils and plugs will that solve my problem or do i got too change my injectors

    • @OneAuto23
      @OneAuto23  8 місяців тому +1

      Hi! The P219E code on your Honda Accord indicates a problem with the fuel trim in bank 2. This code is typically related to a lean condition, which could be caused by a variety of issues including faulty injectors, vacuum leaks, or even a faulty oxygen sensor.
      While changing the coils and plugs could potentially improve engine performance and efficiency, it is unlikely to solve the underlying issue causing the P219E code. If you suspect that the injectors may be causing the problem, it would be best to have a qualified mechanic diagnose the issue further before replacing any parts. This will help ensure that you are addressing the root cause of the problem and not just throwing parts at the issue.

Trans code🤔, my brother in law said the torque converter is incorporated into the emissions system, Great, now what, so I googled and found a man in a lab coat that basically said, “ it all starts at the air filter and ends at the tail pipe, the issue is usually before the victim, so I inspect the air filter alls fine, next is the MAFS, it’s dirty, I clean it, two days later no more codes😜

      The MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor and the MAS (Mass Air Sensor) are both components of a vehicle's engine control system, but they serve slightly different functions.
      The MAF sensor measures the amount of air entering the engine, which is used by the engine control unit to calculate the correct air-fuel mixture for combustion. This helps to ensure optimal engine performance and fuel efficiency.
      On the other hand, the MAS sensor is responsible for measuring the mass of air entering the engine, as well as the temperature of the air. This information is also used by the engine control unit to adjust the air-fuel mixture and optimize engine performance.

      They are the same component.. some ppl call it mas/mass airflow sensor and someppl call it maf/mass air flow sensor.. the confusion comes by ppl separating the work "Airflow" to "Air Flow" hope this helps. Its the same exact component now there is a MAP sensor which stands for " Manifold Absolute Pressure" Sensor

      Those sensors are the same they measure the air flow coming in an example 1.8 liter engine. Should be pulling 1.8 to 1.9 grams per second that is to overcome the parasitic loss of the motor then divide by the into each cylinder to produce right air fuel ratio for each cylinder
