I have not! There is a wire that comes off the solenoid for the switch right?! By replacing this could that help the problem?!

    I parked truck, the next day it would not start. It cranks, I disconnected my MAF and sprayed throttle, truck starts and idols but it turns off if I plug MAF back or if I try giving it gas.
