    I have a 98 gp and I think I have a wiring issue. I tested the PINK wire of the MAF sensor to the computer and I get 23.3 ohms which means there is high resistance. Being curious, I tested that PINK wire to battery ground and got 6.5 ohms. If anyone can check their PINK wire and see if they get the same results. This will help me alot to see if I should further investigate or just move on. Thanks...

    The yellow wire is the signal to the computer. One is power, the other is ground.

    Yeah the yellow wire carries the signal back to the computer. Im talking bout the PINK wire which carries 5v to the MAF sensor.

    What about it? Doing a resistance check on that is not really the test you should be doing. If you want to know if its good or not, do a voltage drop test to see if there is resistance in the circuite.

    How do I go about doing a voltage drop test?
