Please Help Me Validate Maf Wiring Continuity

I have been throwing a p0101 lately, and yesterday I even threw a p0113. I decided to do some wire tests to make sure that all is well in wiring. This is what i found.

I would bypass the PCM female connector, I've noticed they can be a bitch to get continuity in because of the mechanical locking lever actually moves the pins inside the connector. Go to the actual wires going into the connector on the backside.

AHH . You know I thought that the lock might do that. Good to know. I will have to take a look again.

I haven't got around to checking the back of the harness, but i swear this HAS to be an electrical bug somewhere. Especially since my fuel pressure gauge was just reading 75psi while i was hammering it through backroads.....

I would still check the back of the plug, not sure how a MAF problem would be affecting your fuel regulator though.

Is it just me or does it seem like your getting hard idle at start, I honestly can't remember but I am at 60 for my fuel pressure.

little hard idle but thats because shes not up to temp yet. Once it gets to temp the idle is mint, the fuel trims are in check, MAF flow and volts is up to snuff.
