Hey guys,

A very Happy New Year to all on here!! My 1999 mustang GT just wont start after I cleaned the MAF with CRC MAF sensor cleaner.

The car cranks fine but does not start even with the MAF sensor unplugged. There is no issue with PATS and all fuses and relays are fine after testing everything with a multimeter. The voltage reading to the MAF is correct and also the hotwire circuit on the sensor itself shows no resistance. The scanner tool shows that there are no codes stored either.

The car was starting and running fine right before this cleaning and I am at a loss of what to do. Any ideas on what this could be and what I can try to get the car running again?

Thanks in advance for your expert help and advice!!!
