My 2k2's MAF blew out awhile back so I put a 2k1 MAF on the car and have been driving around forever with the 0113 CEL on for IAT High Voltage.. I recently discovered the threads about pulling the thermister off the 2k2 MAF to get rid of the code. So, I found my old MAF in the garage, and put the thermistor from it onto the 2k1 MAF & clamped down the 2 little metal clamps to secure it. I reset the ECU and the CEL magically went away!! After driving a few times (a couple miles down the road and back) I started the car again to find the CEL had come back on I need to get my State Inspection done and they won't pass me w/ the CEL on.

Just wanted to see if anybody had any ideas or suggestions? Is it possible the thermistor from my blown 2k2 MAF is bad and I just need to source another thermistor? If so, where would I purchase one of these?

Thanks for any help,
-Matt

 

What code is the SES light giving you?

 

right there

 

Even when you reset the ECU after you put the new thermister in?

 

yes i reset the ECU after installing the thermistor onto the MAF.. the SES light was GONE! then after i drove for awhile, turned the car off. Later, I started the car, and the SES came back on FTL

 

Might be a faulty thermister.. Little ****** are pretty sensitive...

 

That's kinda what I was thinking.. any ideas where to get a new one?!?

Contact him and see if he can help you. The thread also contains some specs you'll need if you want to try to find one yourself.
