Still throwing code 36..

So, I recently asked formulaLT1 and he answered me right away, that a code 36 is a "MAF" problem. I had a spare maf so i switched it out. It worked fine for a day or two..but a few weeks later the CEL is still illuminated. Im not sure what the problem is. The MAF is a BOSCH and it still has its screen, thet two wires are fine. I also noticed that my engine is running a bit hesitantly. does anyone else have any ideas what the problem with my engine is? any help is greatly appreaciated.

Re: Still throwing code 36..

Code 36. MAF burnoff not functioning properly. This should be an easy fix. The burnoff circuit is controlled by the MAF relay. You have a gen4? I"m not sure where it is on your car, but on the gen3 v6's it was located in front of the battery on the core support. Change the relay and the code should go away.

Yes they would....THeir 1.6L v-tec motors make 165hp, their 2.0L v-tec motors make 200hp. American cars are very inefficient....and lack power per liter...

Re: Still throwing code 36..

Now to the thread starter. Did you reset the ECM after installing the new MAF?
