As a Chevy Cruze driver, you may notice different lights and alerts on your dashboard throughout your ownership. These signals usually signal routine maintenance needs, like fluid or filter changes. However, they could also indicate potential issues within the system, such as trouble code p1101, which suggests a voltage loss from the mass airflow sensor. This likely means the MAF sensor needs replacing, which can cost you between $13 and $58 for the part alone. If you opt for professional installation, expect to pay between $40 and $138 for labor.
Error code p1101 is triggered when the pcm (powertrain control module, also referred to as ecm or engine control module in different vehicles) identifies a problem or inconsistency in the maf (mass air flow) sensor system while conducting its self-diagnosis known as koer or key on engine running.
