Re: DTC P0106 and P0118 appeared after car been parked for a month ??

The 3 colored wires on my MAP are grey, orange/black (center wire) and a green. I finally ordered a new GM ECT sender along with a new pigtail. I trouble shot all the grounds along with voltage and Ohms, but what I found was the plug/pigtail was broken, we might of bumped it when we were pulling the...

Re: DTC P0106 and P0118 appeared after car been parked for a month ??

Just noticed that the diagram you posted is for our 5 wire MAF sensor , but the MAP is a 3 wire plug. I'm gonna start looking for a compromised ground now, probably to the ECM since that's where it's getting its power from? Unless there might be other grounds going to the block for the Starter.

Yes it's a 3 wire. I'm pretty good about rodents, but yes that's a good place to start looking at those grounds. Funny thing when I did start it I smelled something more than just cobwebs burning on the exhaust lol. I looked down to see if I had fried a mouse or rat on the collector tubes of the hea...

DTC P0106 and P0118 appeared after car been parked for a month ??

2013 weekend driver

Hey gang I think I'm pretty much done with all the necessary mods. Now it's probably time to do some appearance mods like some black hood vents? And definitely un-locking the Siver box (OE Radio). But after a couple failed recordings of trying to capture the exhaust note thru the Black Widow muffler...

Re: brake/rotor advise

Hey Bill, thanks for the Great advise and direction as always. Do you know if the OEM pads on the PPVs are semi metalic since they work so good and create alot of dust or could they be a Ceramic /Carbon blend of some sort?
