just went blow thru, having issues

i still only have 5 feeding seven (or i guess really 6 since two are power). the two that arent getting anything to them are the "1 - 5v" and the "7 - MAS"

so no power from the 5v and im throwing the code because my ecu isnt seeing any MAS signal. i already knew this, which is why i think its the wrong maft. it should be plug and play, i shouldnt have to run an alternate jumper wire to anything, but it looks like thats my option... or get another maft.

why would i only have 5 feeding wires if im supposed to have 6? finding pics of other maft setups (on the older "standard" version) is nearly impossible. everyone is using pro :( i bought this back when i didnt know so much about vr4's... now im regretting it.

I'm not sure why you think you need 6. You need 12V, gnd, IAT, Baro, and MAS. That's 5. Some reason they're just in the wrong order on the pigtail. How that happened is beyond me. All the Maf-t's for 2g DSMs and 3Ss are the same.

wierd. ill try re-pinning and see what happens. thanks for your help though. hopefully its that easy then i just start and go.

thanks again

I would start the car and see what the maf-t diag light does.

well i know, im not literally going to start and go, i just mean hopefully it works and quits giving me trouble. i did some comparisons to my pictures and two of your posts. it looks like all im gonna have to do is move my green "mas" wire over to the 7th pin. the guy i bought it from probably screwed with it and didnt say anything to me. thats the main downfall of buying stuff like this from other people.

Which GM MAF do you have installed? That combination on the dip switches is for an LS6 IIRC.

I have posted this a few times, but here is myself quoted from the other board:
http://www.3sgto.org/attachment.php?...0&d=1286350416

Are you sure it's pin 3 for the MAS signal? The way I'm understanding the manual, that's a power feed. I'm gonna assume yours is correct since you've obviously gotten it to work.

I am the op... Im on my friends i pod touch

My flip switches are actually up up down down. When I initially posted they were wrong but after I fixed it it didn't help at all which is when I realized I had an issue. I have a 3.75" gm maf I was told it's from a z06. I will try and fix the pins this afternoon when I'm done with class and report back

And again are you sure it's pin 3 that is the mas signal? Because that's how mine is hooked up currently (look at my picture) and not only is my engine/ecu not seeing the maft but it's not working... At all.

Have you ever thought that you may have a faulty MAS? Or even worse, a MAS that the Translator is not calibrated for?

This is not the op anymore, but I'm pretty sure we are going to exhaust all options before we jump to conclusions and say Nate has a faulty/bad mas or worse, a faulty maf-t. I am fairly certain that it is wired incorrectly as it sits now. Since it does appear that the plug has been tampered with
