S70 GLT MAF Sensor Question S70 2000

Hi,

I got a P1171 code yesterday with my OBD2 read, searched this forum, tried unplugging and repluging MAF connector, thought it might be a bad connection. I cleared the code, it came back again today while driving. I turned off the car, tried to start it and it wouldn't start. I then unplugged the MAF connector, car started right up, and I drove back home. Car drove pretty good, but not great.

Would driving without this connected for about 40 miles have hurt anything?

I was able to go into Autozone (left car idling) and get a replacement Bosch MAF sensor, do I have to replace the whole thing or can I just swap out the sensor part that slides in (the one connected by the 2 'security' type torx)? Thanks.

It's 3 degree's here in Chicago and I don't have a garage.


Thanks,
Oak

    Well, the new MAF didn't fix it. Now the fan won't stop running and it has drained my battery down. Now I'm gonna have to charge up my battery but I don't think it will start.

    Will the dealer using Vadis be able to read those codes I deleted with my generic code reader?

    You may need to clean the sensor. Believe you can remove the sensor from the main body by using a T25 security bit. Do not touch the sensor but clean it with CRC MAF sensor cleaner. Got mine from NAPA. Generally this works, but it could be gone. Try cleaning before ordering another.
