Default was adjusting fuel/air mixture and got this code

•2232 Air Flow Meter plate rotary Potentiometer (resistive Sensor) defective, check sensor output and system wiring.

was it cause i was adjusting it? i had the fuse in the fuel pump relay to put it in base mode. the car runs fine, was adjusting it to lean it out cause i failed HC on emissions test. its a 1988 90 2.3l ng, do u test the flow meter potentiometer through the dpr circuit?? or is there a harness for the potentiometer?? also i cant find a fault code for the ng engine i found this code under a audi 100 2.3l nf with cis 3 system.

any help is appreciated. thanks

got around to looking my car yesterday, and noticed quickly that that a connecter (one facing the fender) was loose on the side of the fuel distributor. going to clear the codes by disconecting battery and see if it comes on again.
