completing circuit

[NeptuneZeek]

how do i complete a circuit for my festive wiring harness now that i have K and N intake?

[Roboskittle]

Wtp??? I am confused could you please elaborate a little more. What wiring? Why would a KandN cause any wiring issues?

[NeptuneZeek]

ok i have it disconnected from the vaf and have K and N filter on it and it wont start now how do i complete the circuit so it will register to start?

put the VAF back on. It won't run without it. There is no way to bypass it.

well "f word" i took the vaf apart hoping to see if there was a ground then hot wire to complete it and i kinda pull one thing off of the chip inside it and i dont have a sautering iron

Yeah that was kind of really important lol. Need to buy a filter adapter for it whenever you get it fixed or replaced.

and sorry 'bout your luck... maybe you should have searched/asked first?

i know the spelling is right for that word i just used the first one that came to mind not look it up in the dictionary lol. i saw a friend of mine use a paper clip to complete the circuit for his vaf and it worked why wont it work on a festiva?

Because thats a hack job?

I still dont understand what you did.

I would ask for pics but I'm deathly scared.

[NeptuneZeek]

i havent really done any horrid damage i fixed the connections so i can put the vaf back on but i still want to use the K and N. even if it is a hack job will it do harm to the car or will it just look ugly?

Not sure, would have to see your VAF.

Im still not sure why you took the VAF apart.

[NeptuneZeek]

well on my nissan i just took out the sensor and moved it to another part of the intake when i moved the intake so i thought it would be that easy it wasnt

[bhazard]

Was it a VAF like our cars or a MAF with the little wire inside?

Our cars rely on the VAF to tell the fuel pump to run for one thing...
