Air Flow Meter/Sensor: Service and Repair

REMOVAL PROCEDURE





IMPORTANT: Take care when handling the MAF. Do not dent, puncture, or otherwise damage the Honeycell located at the air inlet end of the MAF. Do not touch the sensing elements or allow anything including cleaning solvents and lubricants to come in contact with them. Use a small amount of a non-silicone based lubricant on the air duct only, to aid in installation. Do not drop or roughly handle the MAF.

1. Disconnect the MAF sensor electrical connector and the IAT sensor electrical connector.




2. Remove the air intake duct clamps at the MAF sensor and at the throttle body.
3. Remove the air intake duct.




4. Remove the air intake duct clamp at the air cleaner housing.
5. Remove the MAF sensor.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

2. Install the new clamp using J 22610 Service Boot Clamp Installer.




3. Install the air intake duct to the MAF sensor and the throttle body.
