Yes a mass airflow sensor will cause a no start. P0102 is a code for Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor Circuit Low Frequency. 99% of the time replacing the MAF will eliminate the problem. However, 3 things can cause the code...faulty MAF, faulty PCM, or wiring problem in the MAF circuit. Not always, but most of the time, problems such as the crankshaft or camshaft sensor will throw a DTC and check engine light. If P0102 is the only code, I would diagnose this problem first and then check the operation of the vehicle after the P0102 is fixed. Like mentioned, I would just put a MAF sensor in it because 99% of the time, thats the problem. However below is a link to the GM Service Manual for that DTC. Hope this helps!
