2008 base model SRI help

Post by DannyT1994 »

Hey guys, new to genvibe, and I need some help!
I installed a cosmo racing SRI last night on my 2008 base model vibe and took it around the neighborhood and didn't have any problems. However, this morning on the way to work the engine light came on. Just looking for ideas on how to deal with the CEL.

It's pretty easy to install the MAF sensor backwards, check that first. Also make sure all the clamps are tight.

Checked all the clamps and make sure the MAF was in properly. Code is reading P0101, so it's something to do with that, but the cars running perfectly fine. Intake sounds good. Could it possibly just need some time to adjust?

Spray carb cleaner on everything you touched while the engine is running. If the idle speed changes, you sprayed a vacuum leak.

Check your MAF connector and make sure you're properly seating it fully.
