Where are MAF relays located on 1988 Corvette?
Where are the 2 MAF relays (power and burn off) located in the engine compartment of the 1988 Corvette? Also what are part #'s of the relays?

Correct, above and behind the battery. Power relay is facing forward and the Burnoff is facing to the right. Not sure of the part # but at Autozone the relay is MR22.

The 1988 Corvette had the same MAF relays on both MAF Control and MAF Burn-off - GM# 14103304 5-pin, but had different plugin's a 5pin for power control and a 4-pin for burn-off.
MAF Burn-off 4-pin is notorious for throwing a GM code 34 error when EBL ECM is converted over to MAP Sensor!

I don't 'understand' this post in a thread that seemed to have all correct information and is 16 years + old. Your referenced part # was replaced by GM over 20 years ago by the part # in post # 4. Poster #3 had the correct location as well. The thread OP expressed gratitude 16+ years ago. I just don't 'get it'.
Just doing some research for my EBL ECM error code 34 that converts to a MAP Sensor using the MAF Sensor wiring, seeing a lot of controversy in other forums on MAF relays, and thought I would put some links found to substantiate this posting for the 88-89 Corvette!
