OK Gents, I need guidance. Help me Obi Wans! I had an issue this morning . After starting, the check engine light came on. So I did the battery lobotomy as you instructed. Now the engine light is still on and it is throwing the P0102 and P0113 codes. Since those both have to do with the work I just did, did I do something wrong?

so P0102 is MAF related and P0113 is IAT related.

check the condition of the wires, could be torn somewhere or something.

Somebody didn't plug the MAF wiring back in after doing the work. Or hooked it back up but damaged the plug.

Rough start and CEL .... MAF not plugged in or not plugged in correctly, check for bent pins

I stand before you with a red face. After changing the spark plugs yesterday I carefully hooked up the hoses.....and forgot to plug in the sensor plug What a rookie mistake. I appreciate all your help and hopefully this issue is solved. If not...I'll be back

Thanks for being so kind! I felt like an idiot.
Another off the wall question. The 3 left radio buttons quit working a year ago. No big deal. Until I did the battery lobotomy today and the clock went to 12. Now I can't reset it as the buttons don't function. Ideas?

If you can't reset the clock because of non working buttons, then think outside the box...........
Do another battery lobotomy at 11:30. Reconnect at 12:00. Shazam !! Your clock should be correct.

I used the info from a previous post and pushed in firmly but gently on the entire radio. It worked Now not only is the clock back to the correct time, but I have reset the station buttons to newer, better stations I love this wealth of information on our cars. No book could compare. Thank you!
