Air Flow Meter/Sensor: Service and Repair




Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor









Removal and Installation

1. Remove the Air Cleaner (ACL).

2. NOTICE: Do not tamper with the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensing elements located in the airflow meter. Tampering can result in unit failure.

Open the ACL (Air Cleaner).
- Release the air box clamp.

- Separate the inlet side from the outlet side of the ACL (Air Cleaner).






3. Release the latches and remove the Mass Air Flow (MAF) assembly.





4. NOTE: The red clip must be pulled out before disconnecting the electrical connector.

Disconnect the MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor electrical connector.






5. Remove the 2 screws and MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor.
- To install, tighten to 2 Nm (18 lb-in).


6. NOTE: The grommet used to seal the ACL (Air Cleaner) housing at the extension harness must be fully seated. Failure to do so will result in unmetered air entering the engine.
