Default Jimmy shut off for no reason, now a code is being thrown

I was sitting at a stoplight on my way to work, when all of a sudden my jimmy turned off. There wasn't' any sputtering or jerking, clunky, ANYTHING. It just simply turned off. I restarted it and now it is throwing a P0102 code, any ideas?

P0102 relates to the MAF (Mass Airflow Sensor).

You can start with simple stuff like checking the wires and connector to the MAF and its a good idea to remove and clean it every so often.

Use the cleaner specifically made for MAF sensors, not carb cleaner or something along those lines.

Is it common for a vehicle to shut off is the MAF is dirty/bad? (or if its the wiring/connector thats bad)
