hey guys! I finally got my car back from the shop (Needed an idle control motor) and has been running fine, but I was on my way back from best buy when the service engine soon light came on. SO i checked the codes and its a 36code. And in the book it says that thats the MAF Burn off relay. So my question is, what can I do to fix this and were is the burn off relay and how do i take it out. AND if I can do it right away, will I ruin the MAF sensor by driving it. the car runs fine with the light on, but I dont want to break anything.! Thanks guys! and LOVE the forum!!!

The burn off relay comes on for a few seconds after you shut the engine down to burn off any contaminents still left on the hot wire sensor in the MAF. It sits just to the left of the brake booster just above the battery. It has 2 orange wires, dk blue and black wires.

 

ok, is it the one were there is the two relays next to eachother? It has a gry plug and the one next to it has a black plug?

 

Not sure of colors, that is why I gave you wire colors and yes they are next to each other. Matter of fact, there are 3 relays there I think.
