Re: Still throwing code 36..

hey, No i didnt reset the ECM, but after i set up the new MAF, the error code DID go away...it just came back. i did however reset the ECM later, to see if it would go away...and it just came back. well the code went away..for some reason..because...i got into an accident and stuff and yeah..

the error code went away O_O. but..i didnt do anything.

Re: Still throwing code 36..

If the code went away from the ecm's memory without you reseting it. Then you either have a faulty ecm/a loose prom/faulty ground..

Re: Still throwing code 36..

well, the code still MAY be stored, but it doesnt have the CEL on anymore..? while i had the fender off, i did make a couple grounded wires tighter.

Re: Still throwing code 36..

You need to reset a ECM whenever there is a code in the ecm's memory that has been taken care of. If you tried two MAF's the only two other possible causes are wiring or ECM. It is also possible you have a bent prong on the harness that is not making contact. I have had that happen before.

Re: Still throwing code 36..

If the code is still coming up, you may still have a bad MAF relay like I posted b4. Many time in those cars, replacing that should turn off the code.
