    What does the code exactly say? Usually it's something like voltage too low or high....

    Further the engine is running fine?
    When advanced technology fails you need advanced personell using advanced tools and equipment to find advanced solutions... Somehow in either of these matters it keeps going wrong??!?

    Some tests:

    Tests with the MAF sensor plugged up:

    -With ignition on you need to measure aprox. 5V between pin 3 and 5 on the plug.

    -With the engine idling this goes down to roughly 1,5V

    -With accelerating briefly it should read 4,2V

    Check earth connection:

    -Zero ohms between pin 3 and earth

    Check voltages:

    -2 & earth battery voltage

    -4 & earth 5V aprox.


    Wire colours:

    pin1 Blue
    pin2 Red/Blue
    pin3 Brown
    pin4 Red/Black
    pin5 Green

    Good luck!
