Need help again with code 36 argh!!!

I am getting a code 36 again

and I have the flow chart already from a guy here
I grounded the burn off relay blk wire and I heard the realy click on

I took the wiring connector off the mass sensor put my d.m.m. and 0volts un grounded and when I grounded it it when to 12v
determining that my computer isn't grounding the relay
but then I took my intake tube off the side off my newer mass I bought 4 months ago and I thought it would be cool just to watch the wires glow red

\when I groumded the relay

I saw nothing coming from it
im really confused

I just bought a new reman from the parts place here a few months ago

maybe it was bad since new???? 1 year war??

is it the computer???

Just tune it out. Many newer MAF sensors have no burn-off function and it wasn't really needed in the first place. Get a custom chip burned from any of the suppliers out there that deletes code 36.

This is where I am. I bought a re-manufactured unit that is the OEM style as my Code 36 would come and go with a thin film style. If it doesn't fix it, I am going to have it tuned out. I am done working on something that has absolutely no value to a modified car.

I finally figured out... my aftermarket MAF didn't have the burn-off feature. I went back to OEM, and it was fixed.
