I know what the codes mean but I was wondering if anyone could tell me if the code 51 could cause the code 34 also...
my car is running like a POS any help would be rewarded with an eighteen inch pizza with all of the topping you want at my resturant...if your ever in San Marcos.

i would think the code 34 (MAF) sensor circuit...might also shoot up code 51...since bad info is being sent to the ECM, and not the other way around.

Did you mess with the MEMCAL? 51 shoots up when you put in a bad MEMCAL or put it in backwards. Are the codes constant? I think the 51 would cause the 34.

I'd agree w/ the rest, w/ a 51 all bets are off. But start w/ the easy stuff. Did you replace the relay's yet? Do both. ~$20 each.

Can you FedEx a couple slices?

What are you going to do with the old PROM. If you're going to throw it out, I got dibs on it.

If you want a production replacement, post the data on the PROM window cover. It will be cheaper and faster to get a copy form the forum guys. Coarse you will have to do some soldering! GM won't sell you a PROM, they will sell you a CalPack. Just make sure the 4 letters on the window cover are the same for the new.

I'll take the old CalPack and forward the PROM to Aaron! (Have many 256's if you need em Aaron.)
