    I have a 2012 Tacoma 4x4 with the 4 cylinder engine which I just acquired. The previous owner was removing the air box to replace coil packs and pulled the wires out of sensor plug. I’m not sure even what this sensor is called. It was wired back but I think the wires got crossed the truck runs real bad and will stall out while idling. Can someone tell me the correct locations for the wires in the plug. See attached pic

    That is the Mass Airflow Sensor, this is the best I can do for wiring atm.

    Ahh good catch, I saw where it was and was thinking mass airflow sensor.

    To bet installed: bling grill, headlights, fog lights.
    Have you verified those splices are good? #1 suspect in my small mind.

    You might also want to have a look at that hose (cracked?). It could be letting in unmetered air.

    The mass air flow sensor is on top of the air cleaner box on a 4 cylinder.
