    You still need to drive the vehicle for at least 60 miles so computer goes through it’s proper preset run cycles, even if you clear the codes and you are trying to pass smog it will not pass until you complete the required drive cycles..

    Excellent video. I have a question for you. I have a 2012 Rogue with a MAF problem p01 01 code. The Nissan dealer replaced the MAF. I replaced the air cleaner. I did not replace the PCV valve yet. The dealer I go to tells me they cannot fix the problem any more than they have because they do not have a Master Technician??? I am going to have to travel a ways to get a dealer with a Master Technician. The engine light has gone on twice now. It is supposedly fixed now. If not and the light goes on again and the car seems to run fine I want to turn off the engine light. I purchased a Walmart Hyper Tough HT 100 code reader. It is not much on instructions. It connects with your phone via Blue Tooth to give an explanation of the code. I do not need an explanation and I just want to turn off the engine light. My question is, do I have to use the Blue Tooth feature with the HT 100 or can I just plug it to the plug in the car, turn the ignition to on, read the code, and push the red button to clear the code?? Thank you, Tom Spero

    I'm sorry this may seem a little of a long text .Originally I had a lean code p0171 back in March. Looked for vacuum leak none to be found that I know of . Car still ran good . As time went on ,for about a month now the car began having poor acceleration, esp uphill . Finally the CEL went on p0101 maf sensor. Other leaned didn't come back . Took MAF sensor out , cleaned it put in back in , car still ran rough , still with theCEL on w MAF code, p0101. Only code. . Car running still weak. Yesterday CEL went off while idling, then it really ran shitty,even less power ,worse than has been . Cleaned MAF sensor again . Car finally ran normally , for 5 min. Took a quick drive .then the CEL went on again , car ran rough not as bad as before ,but noticeably different . Keeps messing w me . ! No other issues , codes ,etc just the poor acceleration. ??

      It needs to be troubleshooted, but it looks like there is an intermittent problem with the MAF sensor. It likely is a failing MAF sensor or an issue in the wiring such as an open or bad connection.

      @@HVAC_Mechanic hi thanks for replying, sorry it took so long , anyway I agree about being troubleshooted , I did replace the MAF sensor ,just to see if it was MAF sensor related,. I bought it off Amazon . It was an inexpensive one , didn't want to fork out $300-400 for a part I wasn't sure about . I still have original MAF sensor ,it still may be good ?? . One thing I have noticed is all the symptoms still stay the same but it happens more infrequently because climate/ weather is getting colder . When it was in the 80-90° the trouble was happening much more often .

Some days its ok but mostly comes on few times a week. But just found this. Not exactly a fix but worked for me. I noticed if i ran in sports mode. No code appears ! So set my incar screen to custom mode. Engine/sports. Comfort suspension etc. stop start off. No po101 comes back. And no difference in fuel consumption. If you got car with setable modes try it !!

    I replaced the upper and lower intake manifold gaskets on my 2004 Supercharged 3800. The project went on for 4 months.
    After reassembly, the engine ran like crap. It turned out to a vacuum line that ran to the MAP sensor (at the back of the engine). I tossed it because it was falling apart and then I forgot all about it. I capped the mystery vacuum port until I could find it’s destination. Bad idle and stalling. GM had relocated my MAP sensor, on a L67, behind the engine so, un-hosed, it was sending strange values to the PCM. There was no vacuum leak because I capped the mystery port. It passed all of the vacuum-leak tests.
    I finally read up on the MAP sensor purpose, found it , and plumbed a new line. Mine was reading ambient atmospheric pressure, not the intake manifold vacuum.
