04 Sierra Throwing Codes


Recommended Posts

Posted

ok so i did a lil off roading and a couple days later i started throwing codes. i ran a scanner on it and came up with mass air flow and the knock sensor. ive noticed at hight rpms my truck starts to cut out a lil. like 3500-4000. what should i do. why would these items be sending check engine light codes. the truck has 82000 miles. i deploy in 2 weeks so id like to try to get this fixed before without having to go to a shop or the dealer if possible.

Without codes this post is usless. GET the codes.

Or we'll need to get a crystal ball installed on this site so we can read the codes that way. :cheers:

 

 

Did your off roading include splashing water?

Could you have gotten into enough water to have ingested it into the intake? If so you can fry a MAF that way. MAFs don't like water. If you got into enough water or washed your engine you can (not always) get problems from the knock sensors since they are beneath the intake. People that have replaced them have seen signs of water getting into the KS wells.

 

I would check all your wires, wire connections to make sure they are still good and tight. Check the MAF and clean it. You may be replacing both things before you're done.
