2. Disconnect the MAF sensor electrical connector.
3. Remove the 3 MAF sensor mounting screws.
4. Remove the MAF sensor.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

NOTE:
^ The outlet of the air cleaner assembly and the MAF sensor inlet duct must line up when completely installed. Misalignment may cause incorrect airflow readings resulting in MIL illumination or a driveability concern. Improper installation of the inlet duct assembly or air cleaner assembly may cause misalignment.
