MAFS fixed-supposedly

[longjon009]

I finally got tired of scratching my head, and i took my car down to the dealer to look at the MAFS. They took a week and a halkf to do a 3 hour diagnostic and tell me the MAFS wasnt grounded at the ecu and it was putting out battery voltage. Now, when i get 600$, i can have the car back, and all you other guys having the same problem i was can save yourselves some money now that you know what the prob was.

I havent chaecked it out yet, cuz i'm broke, but they told me it wortks now, and all i need are new spark plugs and to clean out my throttle body, soi'll let you know how it is when i get it back. what a pain in the ***.

so did they say what they did to fix it exactly? because i tried adding a groung wire to mine and that didnt help it any.

Whatever they did cost 200$ after the 400$ diagnostic, but this IS the dealership. I have no idea, prob just switched a fuse somewhere. They said the tech had to rewire the ground to the ecu, and before i picked it up i saw him open up the passenger kick panel and check something. On a seperate note, the ****s lost my key for an hour and made me late to work, and now the locks on my doors don't woirk, i have to climb in through the trunk. I hate the dealership.

I would ***** to no end about what they did.By the way, the door timer is located back behind that kick panel, so I would tell them that they compromised the timer and they better fix it free of charge.
