Code 24

[Mr2SlOw...]

Can any1 tell me what this code means and what I can do to fix it.... also I would like to know some of the symptons that can occur due to this code so I can know if this is the cause of my problems....

Code 24 is the temp sensor in the AFM.
It could be short or broken wire between AFM and ECU.
Take the AFM out and check the resistance.
You can also use a voltmeter to check the voltage.
The procedure is listed in the BGB.

OK so your sayin i should take out my MAF and then check it for voltage??? do you know if this code can make my car start up for about 5 seconds then turn off???? Even when I try to rev its like the more I press the gas it still stays in the same RPM about 2-3K even at half throttle... running rich while doing soo and sounding like a machine gun a loud loud machine gun.... then as soon as I give up and let go off the gas its just turns off????

Yes, it will start up and turn off.
Here is how you check the AFM

I fixed my code 24 with a little soldering in the AFM but now I got a new code... i got a soft code 43 .... I still turn on the car and it turns on for about 3 seconds then it turns off again... what would this have to do with my starter????
