also I hear it could be a MAF sensor. Mine has a broken wire going into it.
YES, that could be a HUGE issue. A bad MAF can cause all manner of symptoms which could include hard starts when cold.also I hear it could be a MAF sensor. Mine has a broken wire going into it.
Mazda Skyactiv's are kinda notorious for this. Failed MAF sensor = won't start at all.YES, that could be a HUGE issue. A bad MAF can cause all manner of symptoms which could include hard starts when cold.
When I was troubleshooting a '14 Rogue with a fried bug in the MAF it could be REALLY difficult to start....tons of cranking and messing w the go-fast pedal. Once warm it was easier but still ran poorly of course and idled even worseMazda Skyactiv's are kinda notorious for this. Failed MAF sensor = won't start at all.
Seriously? You've been looking at that broken wire for months but somehow convinced yourself that there's no way that could be the reason why it won't start?also I hear it could be a MAF sensor. Mine has a broken wire going into it.
Sure that could be an issue. Diagnostic 101, fix what you know is bad if it could be even remotely related to the problem.also I hear it could be a MAF sensor. Mine has a broken wire going into it.
PCM is always the last resort. It can happen but I'd be leary of jumping onto that diag.Have a Ford guy on site, he thinks the injectors are not grounded by the computer, he checked the pulse. It's getting spark but no pulse. This is getting too esoteric for me. He sampled some gas, does not think it's the gas anymore.
How likely that it is the computer itself? Or some ground wire?
the most weird thing is, he unplugged the coil and an injector and these did not show up in either Actron or Forscan. Even after cranking and even when looking at live data.
What does that mean?
