MAF location

Does anybody know where the MAF is located on the EX model? I'm thinking it's somewhere on the TB. I need to know why i'm throwing a CEL of p0102. Originally I was throwing a P0141 which is the secondary O2 sensor. While trouble shooting the P0141 issue, I got the P0102 problem and now my car can only go up to 3.5K RPM and get cut off. I want to also mention that I took out the secondary O2 and put it back but not very tight. I just hand tighten it, can that bring about the P0102?

Any help would be appreciated.

The MAF is located on the stock airbox. #18 in the following diagram:



From what this is telling me, you should check to see if it's properly plugged in, cleaned and facing the right direction.

I remember once I forgot to plug in the MAF and it didn't let me go past 3.5K.

have you installed a CAI?

the MAF sensor is screwd down if you have the OEM intake so it is unlikely that it has gotten loose unless you have done some sort of mod to your intake.

i guess that maybe when you messed w/ your O2 sensor you could have caused it to throw a CEL. when my O2 sensor went bad, i noticed lots of notchiness in my old car.

some times codes are linked and when one is set the other follows.....clear the codes.... tighten down the O2 sensor and then run it...

Brand new O2 sensor in but still throwing the O2 code and the MAF code. Does anybody have the diagnostic for the MAF, O2 for the 8thgen? I'm starting to think it's a short somewhere. Because now, I have a battery light on and my alternator is not charging my battery.

It sounds like you have bigger problems than that. I'd probably bring it into the dealer and get everything looked at.

check all your underhood fuses. These items may all share the same fuse.
