Fried afm need a pic

Friend Fried my airflow meter. I opened it up looks like 2 solders broke not sure where the hell they go. I need to see a pic of the airflow meter case **** without the black cover. anyone knows what im talkin about it would be very nice to see a pic.

It is below airbox, on square metal piece. cover is glued on, black, long half circle shape, need a close up to see where to resolder wire.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

if its going to be hassle, I suggest pick-a-part. it maybe a 20 dollar part there but if you find a decent donor car theres a good chance it'll be in good working condition. I think. haha good luck man.

yeah, the number (from left) 3, 4, and 5 are soldered, also the #5 one is soldered AND has a wire running off of it.

EDIT:make sure you have clean little blobs of solder, and it isnt bridging any other stuff inside the afm.

if it had enough juice going through it to blow out a solder joint then the AFM is toast.

The third from the left and the fifth from the left are the ground circuit. They are one and the same thing and should ohm out to each other much like touching both meter leads to each other. Like 0.000 ohms.

The first and second from the left are for the fuel pump Circuit Opening Relay. Just a open/close switch.

The fourth from the left is the Vref from the ECU and should be approx 5vdc.

The sixth from the left is the output of the afm to the ECU. The *wiper* if you will.

The seventh is for the air temp sensor.

That's in the fsm. You need to download one and take a look.......or just swap parts for the rest of your life. Your choice.
