Sorry if this is a dumb question, but have you checked all the fuses? The labels are likely different on yours, but the fuse locations should be the same. The top middle fuse labeled "ROOM L" should...

You can fix your own stock MAF with simple soldering. Another one from a junkyard will just fail the same way if it hasn't already. I bought a couple junkyard MAF's five years ago to rebuild and...
