I Think I Fried My Maf Well this weekend i installed pacesetter LT.
so i had to exstend my O2's but i did not cover them in wire lume or anything so one wire melted some and it might have shorted.
That brings me to the ses codes i have on. the only codes are maf low circut not anything to do with the O2's. So i took the MAF apart and cleaned it with electric cleaner. but no luck.
So any ideas should i install a new one or will it fry that one and could it be the pcm?
PS will i do any harm if i drive it with it like that?

Actually the O2 sensors and MAF are powered off the same circuit. It is the engine sensor fuse which is a yellow 20 amp fuse located in the fuse block closest to the front of the car. Many people who have melted O2 wires throw a P0102 MAF Sensor Low Frequency code.
After you fix the melted wire, check the engine sensor fuse because I bet it's blown, replace the fuse if needed, and you should be good to go.
No but I believe your car will run in open loop speed density mode all of the time.

this sounds good but as i was driving home it threw codes for both o2s and and something about the tranny we are going to go check that stuff and then start changing things out.
