Code 36 - MAF Sensor Burn-Off

NOTE: The following step numbers refer to the numbers on the Diagnostic Flow Charts.
  1. This test will determine if the burn-off function is operative or if the code was set due to an intermittent condition.
  2. Checks for a continuous 12-volt supply to burn-off relay.
  3. Grounding circuit 900 should energize the relay and close the contacts.
  4. With the burn-off relay energized, there should be 12 volts supplied to the MAF sensor on terminals "D" and "E" (circuit Nos. 993 and 994).

NOTE: Code 36 could have been set due to a poor connection at any of the relays or the MAF sensor. Be sure that these connections and terminals are OK, before replacing ECM.
