Ok, so then , it could be one of the wires is loose in the connection to the MAF or a loose or broken ground wire, that being said , if it was the ground it should give a MAF code also,
Which brings me back to loose connections, bent pin perhaps

That's what I'm thinking, there's a lot of tension on these plug wires

The solution likely is for you to follow up on the suggestions already put forward to you.

Check the pins in the connection to the MAF , they might be loose and slide out, they might be bent and won’t engage correctly

Can anyone see my posts?

I did post that the 2 tan wires are the IAT wires and even pointed out that one is signal and one is low ref (that is digital ground).

The problem lays either in one of those wires or the MAF is faulty. If it was a bad ECM nothing would work; the ECM supplies the low ref and receives the signal.
