just conencted my boost solenoids up, and went for a blast

 

(car pulling reall well!)

 

 

all of a sudden pop/bang! like a bee*R overfueling sound.

 

car started after it, bogging out. now doesnt start.

 

ECU shows error code 12, which is the AFM?

 

 

now this is the first time ive driven the car in boost since ive had the AFM.

 

it was a little boggy when i had it, and the mesh was a bit crap, so cleaned the mesh, and sprayd WD40 onit.

 

think ive bought a shit AFM?

 

the car will not start now tho?? shal i unplug it?

just looked, the CAS had come off.

 

CAS back on, started & runs fine.

 

 

am still getting error 12 when i connect the AFM tho?

 

 

it runs fine with the AFM connected? must be dodgy.

 

 

while i have error 12 does the car go in any kind of mode? it will rev over 2500rpm etc ?

Have you reset the ECU, might be the old fault still.

no i havnt,

 

i get code 55 when i unplug the AFM (all fine)

 

but when plug it in comes up with 12 (but still drives fine)

Just so we understand the problem now and forgetting what codes your getting for a mo.

The car NOW drives fine generally but when pushed it pops and bangs etc ?

Any other problems/symtoms?

smithy

the car drives fine now, no pops or bangs.

 

 

i was driving it, then it went pop/bang, then woudnt start.

 

but i think that was because the CAS connector came off.

 

 

the AFM is something seperate i think, as ive got the error code for the AFM still.

 

i thaught the initial problem was the AFM as i did the ECU check,

 

then saw the CAS after.

 

 

car running fine, but has error 12. does the car not run 100% if its in error modes?

Code 12*: air flow meter circuit

 

If it runs fine connected then surely the AFM is fine but perhaps some loose wiring somewhere causing it to pop up?

well its a new AFM to the car, so id expect it to be iffy

(second hand one)

 

 

might buy a new one, just to have code 55 :)

 

 

if i sell it to the 200sx boys, will it come up with an error message on theirs?

 

dont want to sell it to a Z owner whol have the error message also
