mass air flow sensor wiring question
I have an aftermarket 85mm MAS sensor from SLP Performance parts.
It has three wires - black/grey; yellow, red.
I know that one wire is ground, one is + voltage and one is signal.
Would like to know which is which and is the +voltage 12V or 5V?
Thanks in advance for any help. I cannot find any information on this.

Pin A: Yellow wire-signal
Pin B: Black/White wire-Ground
Pin C: Pink Wire- Ignition voltage
All this info is available in the engine controls section of the service manual.

Since your sig is devoid of any info, I can only assume that you have a 2000 or older C5 that uses the three wire MAF. If this is the case, they are as follows:
Pin A: Yellow wire-signal
Pin B: Black/White wire-Ground
Pin C: Pink Wire- Ignition voltage
All this info is available in the engine controls section of the service manual.
Pin A: Yellow wire-signal
Pin B: Black/White wire-Ground
Pin C: Pink Wire- Ignition voltage

It is a 3 wire sensor and does have yellow, blk/wht and pink.
Actually this MAF is not going on a car. Its being used on a piece of test equiipment with a fan and I need to measure flow but did not know how to hook it up.
Ignition voltage being 12V? Is there a chance it could be 5V DC?
Thanks again.

Thakns for the reply. That was my first post.
