I tried the clean routine to no avail
The disturbing part now is that I don't even get a code. I haven't tried the volt meter yet, funny thing I left mine on the mainland...checked all the connections and the wires look good. Got a price of $247.50 on the MAF from Subaruparts.com, but just like the local dealer it isn't in stock -- at least they will order the right part. Local price 350.00.
I have already found the wonderously quick on their feet (only by comparison to the town side branch) Schuman Cairrage of Waipahu. Not too good on the diagnostics, but they turn a good wrench.
