code 12 is airflow meter. probably got something going on with its connection or its dropping out, do a search on "MAF" in this section ad you will find the procedure for testing it.

yes, you cant see if a MAF is ok. Its a heating element that changes voltage as air passes over it, the more air the cooler it gets. How can you see that wire is hot enough or getting the right voltage to get hot enough?
