Engine Code P0102 Sign In
Buick LaCrosse 99 model with 75,000 actual miles 6 cylinder engine

Check engine light comes on. Ran code check and it says P0102 MAF or VAF A Circuit Low Input.

Is this caused by a sensor and if not is there something that I can do to correct the problem?

Thanks

Are you using a K&N filter?

What filter are you talking about? Air Filter or what? If it is air filter, I am using a Fram air filter.

Yes he was referring to the air filter. Oil base air filters are one cause of ruining MAF sensors.....

There are a few things that can cause this problem, a defective sensor being one of them...

Some thing quick an easy would be to get a can of MAF sensor cleaner ( I believe CRC makes it, in a grey can) and clean the sensing wire inside the sensor and clear the code. If the codes comes back then power, ground & signal wires would need to be checked as well as grams per second while running to verify the sensor is accurately reporting air flow..


Also makes sure all air tubes & lines are hooked up and secure with no leaks.....
