Is there anyway I can check my MAF from my RB25 SII. I've traced back all the MAF wires hooked up in my S14 swap. All of them are correct, and there doesn't seem to be any loose connections or sheilding problems. My car is only revving out half way. Does anybody have the R33 Skyline FSM that would have proceedures on checking sensors such as this?

What voltage should I have on my signal wire? I'm getting 10volts. I think I have a bad MAF.

tried aluminum foil wrapping with electrical tape over that all down the whole extension wire for sheilding. Did not change.

if you've got 10v on the maf signal wire then it sounds like you've more of a wiring problem than anything.

Bad wiring and a bad maf will show high voltage. If you're 100% wiring is correct try swapping the maf.

okay, so i just tested with a mutlimeter again. The power wire sends 12 volts to the maf, the maf sends ~10-12volts back through the signal wire to the ecu.

Bad Maf?
