To correct this problem, we suggest the following modification. It's really very simple. You are just going to power the GM MAF sensor off chassis ground instead of sensor ground. | To correct this problem, we suggest the following modification. It's really very simple.

+ | ===== Extend the Wire to the Firewall ===== | ||
+ | The next step should be obvious. Just solder an extension wire onto the exposed end of the GM MAF ground wire and run it over to a chassis ground point. We do this with a standard ring terminal as illustrated below. Of course, as always, be sure to heatshrink the solder joint. It would also be a good idea to put a zip-tie around the three wires to the GM MAF connector to provide strain relief for the new wire... | ||
