Help with MAF trouble

i am running a code 34. I unplugged car MAF with car running, no changes. Unplugged MAF at power relay, no changed. Dead relay? Something else?

Just replace your MAF.

I had a "new" rebuilt one.
It was bad. Got it swapped,problem went away.
Autozone bitched, but, I'm happy now.

Well, once the code 34 pops up, I've found that the car will usually ignore the MAF after that. You'd have to turn the car off and start it again for the ECM to pay attention to the MAF. Search around for my MAF chart, it will give you all the answers.
