SO i was driving down the highway and i was shifting into 6th and after i did my trac light came on as did my battery light and i lost power.. im almost positive it went into limp-mode.. so i pulled over and turned the car off.. went to start it and nothing... upon looking under the hood i saw my MAF connector came completly off... when i try to start it, when the key is in the on pos. the security light flashes really fast and im almost certain that it did something to the immobilizer or related systems.. i tried clearing any kinda codes that may be affecting the car but it came up communication error when trying to read and clear codes....
it seems as if its not reading my key thinking there is a huge problem since the MAF reading vanished while pulling 110 mph
any help?

Not sure I would admit to that speed....but what is your wheel/tire situation like? If the rotating diameter of the front vs rear is too far off, it can trigger TCS followed by limp mode, and can happen easier at higher speeds.
I don't know how that affects the MAF, but it might be 2 different issues here.

Its got nothing to do with my wheels and tires.. it went into limp because my MAF disconnected itself
