    I think I have been plagued with the P0102 code since I did my top swap last fall. For whatever reason, I have over looked it till now. I have it narrowed down to the fuse is blown. I replaced it three times and each one blew. Can it be the wiring for the 97 gt is different then for the gtp newer maf?

    It isn't just the wiring last I checked...it was the entire throttle body.

    I know the tb is different but that would not cause the p0102. After looking at advance auto online site, the gt and gtp maf for 97-98 are the same. I'm going to go home and look for my stock gt maf and swap it in.

    Never mind I found out I have a 98 blower and tb, so it should be the same maf that was used on my gt, I am going to switch them tonight and see how it responds.

    At this point it has nothing to do with the MAF sensor. It has to be a wire issue. With a new fuse and the maf unplugged, as soon as I put the car to the on position, it blows the fuse. I threw a 30 amp fuse on it and it works fine. What are the side affects to running a 30 amp fuse temporally till I trace down what is causing this fuse to blow.

    What all runs on this fuse? Are the o2 also using this fuse?

    the issue is now you could start a fire because the wire is probably shorted somewhere
