maf burnoff control i have a problem with the maf sensor.. i was not getting power to the burn off on the maf ...so i replaced the burn off relay still no power.. when i pull off the burn off relay i get 14.1 volts with engine running .when i use 2 jumper wires to the relay i lose (blk 900 d12 burn off control )if i take that jumper to the battery neg terminal the relay closes and sends power to the maf .... does that sound like a bad ecm ? |
Re: maf burnoff control ive been throwing the burnoff relay code with 2 diff maf's and ive replaced the relays as well.... idk wat the prob is either. the burnoff relay isnt activated until the motor is turned off and its only activated for a sec. i would try looking at the wires and connections. idk about the ecm. i could be |
Re: maf burnoff control yeah i just checked the black 900 d12 wire from the relay to the ecm and i have continunity...and checked according to my wiring schmetic d6 tan wire and d3 blk/wht wire look to be my only grounds to ecm and they have continunity to ground ..its just when i put a load on my blk 900 and 12v i lose my blk 900 ground ...does the maf sensor it self send any signal that controls that blk 900 wire to the ecm or does the ecm or prom itself control that ground wire? |
Re: maf burnoff control bump |
Re: maf burnoff control also car runs like crap when the maf is plugged in ...runs good when disconnected....and 1 other thing my ignition coil went bad small crack along the tower which shot a spark from under the boot and was arching to itself ..just wondering would that of sent voltage through a ground and to the ecm? |
Re: maf burnoff control hmm hard to say, i kno the burnoff circuit is in the MAF, the relay is external. so if its running bad with the MAF connected and better when its not connected i would swap out the MAF, it takes like 30sec and if it doesnt work just return the new MAF, dont get it dirty tho. i doubt the arching would haveaffected the ECM. it woulda just grounded itsself. ur car still runs so ur ECM hasnt been affected. |
Re: maf burnoff control the problem is anytime you buy electrical parts they wont take it back:mad: i really dont think its the maf... i could be wrong... its the ecm thats not grounding d12 to make the coil in the relay close for the burnoff relay |
Re: maf burnoff control yea but it still shouldnt run better with the MAF unplugged or out.its suppose to run like **** wit it unplugged. im throwing the same code as u but my car runs fine im just getting the darn code. thats a tell tale sign that the maf is bad. i had the prob with that and i took the MAF out and replaced it wit one from my 86ta and the prob went away but then came back a month or so later. really? im alowed to bring my MAF back as long as it doesnt look like it was used. plug in a new MAF and see what happens. or get a friend wit a ECM and swap it out. either way ur looking at one expensive part... i need to figure out whats wrong with mine too. its annoying bc this code never goes away and i hate looking at the check engine light. |
Re: maf burnoff control funny thing is im not throwing a code or a check engine light the only time i throw a check engine light or code is if i disconnect the maf sensor |
Re: maf burnoff control Instead of replacing a MAF, diagnose it. There are some things to check in the burnoff circuit, and since the engine runs poorly with the MAF connected, you should also check the MAF signal while the engine is running. MAF Operational Tests - 1986-89 Delco/Bosch Analog Units Whenever a sensor or device is suspect, the first thing to check are the circuit connections. In the case of a MAF sensor, there are multiple devices involved with successful operation, including the MAF power relay, MAF burn off relay, ignition switch and fusible links, fuses, ECM, and finally the MAF itself. The MAF should have a five wire connector.
MAF Burn Off Operation and Testing
NOTE: Any interruption of the cycle will cause an error, and subsequent error code. This includes marginal relay contacts, poor connections and grounds at any point, and intermittent operation of the auxiliary oil pressure switch, since any voltage from the oil pressure switch will indicate to the ECM that the engine is not shut down, effectively terminating the cycle. http://72.19.213.157/files/MAFpower.gif Other things to check:
