Mass air flow code

[luvsspeed]

Today I started the car after sitting for about a month and a half, it took and 15 mins to get it started. Once I did and it started to idle normal, I checked for codes. I got 16487 - Mass Air Flow Sensor (G70) P0103 - 001 - Signal too High. I tried to clear it, but it came back a second later. Mind you I had no codes when I parked it. Would this mean its reading too much air flow? Also would this mean a sensor new would be needed, cleaned or could the problem be somewhere else?

Clean the MAF out and work the plug on and off. Possibly just a bad connection? Do you have VCDS?

Yes

What reading do you get from the mass airflow sensor in the Engine control module measuring blocks at idle? I’m not sure exactly which measure and block it is. The general rule of thumb is for every L of displacement you should have one gram per second of flow. A 4.2 engine should have about 4.2 g/s of flow at idle

I will check, providing I can find what block its under.

Found out that I didn't fully tighten the intake hose to the TB, the last time I did work. I cleaned the MAF, checked the plug and re-attached everything. Cleared the code, but it came back repeatedly a second later. I still have not found what measuring block to look under though. I checked up to 111. Is it possible that the MAF is bad? Thinking about just ordering one.
