Check engine light wont go off

I have a 5.7 350 vortec an the check engine light wont go off ive checked with code reader why check engine light was on an it said maf low voltage an also the cam position sensor.......we went ahead an changed the maf sensor twice an air temperature switch an the cam positon sensor...i have did a live test while the car was bring drivein an it was saying that no air at all was passing thru the MAF but everything else was running fine.....im just lost at this point

Did you clear the codes after you replaced the maf, the cel should go off after 50 cycles (ignition being turned off and on)

SOURCE: check egine light code p0102 map/maf is currently on and the car is running fine.

At this point you need to test the signal from the MAP to the PCM (powertrain control module), it should vary between about 1 and 4 volts as you throttle the engine up and down quickly, if little or no change then the heated wire in the MAF is burned out and th sensor will have to be replaced, in that case, they sell rebuilt units at a very reasonable cost, try rockauto.com, best prices around period.

SOURCE: wont complete scan to pass emission test

When you rest your codes there is a series of tests your ECU has to go through before you can pass emissions. this is done some people can reset the code and go before its sets the code again. on the 96 you can have 2 tests not complete for it to pass. basicly you have to drive the car a couple days for the tests to pass.

check the readiness tests wait until only 2 have not passed. then you should be good.so drive and check.

Check for a lower intake leak somewhere air is getting in on 1,2,3. Check for leaking vaccum hoses also.

Not the IAC, or MAF, or 02

Does the Van Crank over?
Have you checked the IGN Relays? 1,2,and 3?
How did the Battery test out?
Anything below 11.9v battery is dead.
So I suggest that you do not throw any more parts and check the battery again.

SOURCE: 2002 impala 3.8L 180,000kms. Having

it is possibly the throttle position sensor(tps) malfunctioning. basically the computer or "brain" of the car thinks the throttle is in a different position than it really is and automatically makes adjustments to fuel, air ect.... based on these false readings from the sensor thus causing the engine to react a little different when you expect to have power.

1999 passat check engine light on and low idle

Best bet is to plug it into a code reader to see what the computer believes the problem to be. Only takes a few seconds and should be next to nothing in cost. Best guess is that the front O2 sensor in your air intake needs replacement. Other possibilities are clogged fuel filter or even worn out spark plugs. Need that code number to pin it down accurately.

Can you tell me the location of code reader 1991 capri ?

1991 is pre-OBD2. code readers will not work.
sorry.
however, all is not lost. Many cars have an alternate way of reading codes from the computer.
Toyota has a block under the hood and you short couple wires together and count engine light flashes
Chrysler you can turn the ignition key on and off a few times and count engine light flashes
in your case for GMs from 1982 to 1995
1: find the 12 pin connector under the dash and short the upper two rightmost terminals.
with the ignition "ON" and engine not running. The system will enter the diagnostic mode. In this mode, the computer will display a Code 12, three consecutive times, by flashing the "CHECK ENGINE", "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" or "MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP" or light. A Code 12 consists of one flash, a short pause, then two flashes in rapid succession.
2:. After Code 12 is displayed, any stored trouble codes will be displayed by flashing the "CHECK ENGINE", "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" or "MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP" light. All codes are displayed 3 times each then a code 12 will repeat. In the diagnostic mode, the computer will also energize all computer controlled relays and solenoids.

E150 hesitates under light throttle

Did it occur the MAF (will not set code) is defective or the fuel pressure is low?

My 5.3l vortec will start with ether but wont stay running

Is your gas cap on tight? Could be low fuel pressure. Can you check your fuel pressure? Have you checked your fuel filter? You may need to replace the fuel pressure regulator. Locate it and pull vac hose off of it and if there is gas coming out of hose replace regulator. You will need to relieve pressure before changing.

Trouble Code: P0102


MAF Sensor Circuit Low Input
Possible Causes:



Check for leaks between MAF sensor and throttle valve control module Voltage supply faulty. Sensor power circuit open from fuel pump relay to MAF sensor Sensor signal circuit open (may be disconnected) from ECM and MAF Faulty ground cable resistance between connector terminal 1 and Ground MAF Sensor malfunction Sure hope this helped you and good luck.
