Hi Guys,

I drive a 2006 Civic 1.8 Lxi. I installed an after market air intake system short ram yesterday. My issue is with the MAF sensor. I switched the engine on after the installation, which was done as per instructions from the users manual. The car kept shutting down 5 seconds after switching on. It looked like as if the car wasn't getting proper air or fuel. I tried to accelerate a lil and took it up to 6K RPM. But the car brought it down on its own to 3K and then to 1K, gave a jerk n a bit of vibration n then shut down again.

I havent managed to get the car to drive after the installation as the car is still in the parking and cannot get the car to stay on. Pls help.

 

Is the MAF installed in the correct direction?

Did you unhook your battery to reset the computer?

 

do you have the aem intake??

 

Yes, i disconnected the battery to reset the computer. When i connected it back the problem still remains. I tried to look for the ECU fuse or the back up fuse but cannot make out which one.. i see so many damn fuse inside the hood but none of em marked ECU fuse......

 

garuntee its backwards.

 

Hey Guys,

thank you so much for all your help. I removed the aftermarket intake and replaced it with the stock one to solve the issue temprarily coz I din have much free time to play around.

This morning i decided to start all over again. cleaned the MAF sensor with a brake cleaner and then installed everything again. There we go it works us fine... I love the sound... thanks once again..........
