Default code 36

I have an 88. I'm getting code 36. I've checked the connections to the relays and the maf. I've tried switching the 2 relays and the same code reappears after I cleared the computer. Should I replace the 2 relays and am I better off buying ac delco. Thanks, any and all advise apperciated.

I would diagnose before replacing anything.

Yesterday I purchased the 2 relays, replaced them and cleared the computer code. I started my vette and let it run for a while then shut itdown and tested again for trouble codes. This time it was clear. Last night I used it for a while, made a stop, restarted and drove home. No codes. So far all looks good. Just wanted to pass this along to future forum readers that may be searching for info with similar problem. The info I found during my searches was very helpful.

My 88 did the same thing. I also replaced the relays, both have the same part number , one is the MAF and the other is the burn off relay. No more codes.
