I'd be pulling that wiring at the MAF apart to see what things looked 
like...especially if someone else did the install, I  think we've all seen some 
real hack jobs.

95 = OBD I  no other numbers in front of it. P0010 is an OBD II code.

The error is Intake temp. sensor circuit. Doesn't necessarily mean the sensor / 
MAF itself is bad. Could be a connector, wiring, or other part of the system.

My code reader is telling me that a P0010 code, on a Mazda, is for any of the 
following:
~EGR Valve stuck
~Camshaft Position Actuator Circuit
~Fan Switch / Dial
~Steering Angle Sensor short
 
I’d start somewhere other than the MAF. If the MAF was bad, it would be quite 
obvious and the car would run like ick. If the EGR was stuck the car would 
still run ok. Personally, I’d verify the code again then start checking wires 
to the Camshaft sensor and fan switches first. Make sure those fans are coming 
on. 
 
Are you sure the code is just “10” or are there other numbers in front of it? 
The codes do run in numerical order from P0010 to P3000 (and beyond).

So I have a fun issue. 95 Miata, Check engine light is on - "code 10". Air temp 
sensor circuit. Car seems to run fine. I swapped out the MAF with the one from 
my 96 and cleared the code....came right back within seconds.




Car had a JR M45 on it when I bought it and it looks like some of the MAF 
wiring may have been "disturbed" during the install (some non-OEM tape just 
behind the connector). The MAF connector is seated firmly but the little clip 
that secures it was broken off long before this issue.

So first question is, how do I test the wiring (say between MAF connector and 
ECU), just continuity? Any resistances or voltages to check for at the 
connector? Should I maybe try to locate a new connector and splice it, or is it 
possible to get the pins out and re-insert in a good connector?

Other thoughts from the peanut gallery? :-)
