Air Flow Meter/Sensor: Service and Repair
Mass Airflow Sensor/Intake Air Temperature Sensor Replacement
Removal Procedure
1. Disconnect the MAF/IAT sensor electrical connector (1).
2. Remove the air cleaner outlet duct assembly.
3. Loosen the MAF/IAT clamp (2).
Notice:
* Handle the MAF sensor carefully.
* Do not drop the MAF sensor in order to prevent damage to the MAF sensor.
* Do not damage the screen located on the air inlet end of the MAF.
* Do not touch the sensing elements.
* Do not allow solvents and lubricants to come in contact with the sensing elements.
* Use a small amount of a soap based solution in order to aid in the installation.
Remove the MAF/IAT sensor from the air cleaner outlet duct. Note the position of the MAF/IAT sensor.
