Materials required: One can of electrical contact cleaner, and a T20 Tamper-proof TORX bit
1. Locate the MAF assembly.
2. Disconnect the electrical connector completely.
3. Using the TORX driver, remove the two screws that secure the sensor element.
4. Carefully pull the sensor element straight up and out of the body
5. Carefully inspect the sensor to verify that there are two cross wires running from one terminal to the other (about 1/2" long), if either are missing, damaged, bent, or broken, the MAF assembly must be replaced as a unit. Do not touch the wires.
6. Clean off any deposits, junk, or oil from the sensor terminals on the post using the electrical contact cleaner. Not the electrical connector area!
7. Allow to dry completely
8. Carefully insert sensor element into body and secure with screws you removed earlier
9. Re-attach the electrical connector
10. Start the engine, and ensure everything operates normally, road test for performance.
