Default Check Engine Light - Air/Fuel Code

****EDIT****

Got the Engine light code, it is P1283

The guy at autozone didnt really know what he was doing so idk if that is the only error code. I know yesterday, when i had them scan it, they came up with 2 codes, both where the same error, some air/fuel thing, but i didnt get the numbers, and he erased them when he scanned it yesterday. Today, i dont know if they both are back, or only 1 but i would assume both, and he just didnt know how to use the scan tool.

Lemme know what/where this error refers to. Any help would be great.

************


Hey so i just threw a CEL and i was hoping yall could help me out alittle. Lemme give you the whole story cause idk if anything will help.


Basically, about a month ago, my friend took my Injen Ram air intake off and started my car straight w/ just a throttle body. Obviously bad, but nothing major i would assume. At the time i did throw a CEL though. So i reset the ECU and it was all good. Then 2 nights ago, it was raining, and the light came on after some driving around (some sorta bumpy roads). I reset the ECU and it came back on. I went to autozone and they ran the codes and it said something like Air/Fuel Measurements or something. I will try to get the exact reading again. I know it was 2 codes, both were the same. SO i thought maybe my o2 sensors on my testpipes got messed up in the rain. 2 sensors, 1 on each pipe so maybe 2 codes.


Basically, my thoughts are that it could be the o2 sensors on the testpipes, or the MAF sensor or something. I really dont know. So if anyone knows what that code means or where the problem is located that would be great.


P.S. - My skidplate that covers up the area for an oil change was off while i was driving that night, i had it off for a while then 2 nights ago was the first rain lately so idk if that maybe the cause also but i doubt it.




Any help would be greatly appreciated. I really wanna try to solve this thing.

You need to provide the DTC codes. Starting the car without the MAF in line with airflow certainly was the cause of the first DTC.

i had the same issue today .. i was crusing with my freind then we stopped for sometime for coffe.. after that i switched on the car and i felt like there is kind of unstable RPM but there was no check engine or anything..

i waited some time and then i drove the car home, parked it. and then when i swtiched on my car after 2 days a check engine was showing..

so i went straight to the nissan dealers and i had them checking it .so it threw out the A/F sensor and it was not getting deleted .. so they said ihave to change the air fuel sensor...


am fixing it tomorrow .. will let u know

Update :::::::


got the car today its alive and working.. it was the Air/fuel sensor..

once you connect your device to the console 2 it will give u the error and it which side.. (p10284 b1)

p10284 --> is the error code.
b1 ----> block one.. mean the left side of the engine.. b2 is the right side.. if am not mistaken..

i got the sensor (the whole thing , wiring and the head which connectsd to the manifold and the other part the connects to the wire of the ecu).. and actually nissan sell it all as a package i mean you can by the head alone and the wiring alone..,.,... i baught it for 60$.. its cheap so no need to part it out....

but labour was more cause its hard cause its too hot.. so u better leave the car there and let them start working on it while the car is cold so they dont tell u its alot of work and charge you more.

i guess now solution is known.. good luck.
