Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that contain suggestions: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Suggestion
Check each of the wires on the cable to make sure they look good and not frayed, pinched or broken.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Recently my 99 c2 check engine light came on. I plugged my obd2 scanner up and it reads code p0102. I notice that my car does not hold a good idle. Sometimes it will shut down by itself. Could this be anything other than a Mass Air Flow Meter?

POST 2Original post

According to my OBDII code reader it's the "MAF or VAF A circuit Low Input".

POST 3Original post

Indication that your MAF is fried, not connected or even severely dirty. Check each of the wires on the cable to make sure they look good and not frayed, pinched or broken. You can do more extensive testing of circuitry if necessary. Many times, simply removing the connector and reseating it corrects the fault.
