Hi,

If you look below, I attached two pics. One of the pics shows the sensor wiring and colors. Also, it indicates the letters of each connector pin at the sensor.

Pic 2 shows the connector pin-out for the MAF. Let me know if that is what you are looking for or if you have other questions.

Take care,

joe

See pics below.

Question for you. So, if I’m looking at this from the front of the hood how would I wire this? Currently I have it like this. Blk/white- Pink- Tan/Blk- Tan- Yellow.
