I got my mass air flow sensor from vehiclevalueparts.. I think they’re high
quality and a whole lot cheaper than the junk yard or dealer. Good video!

replaced it> it last for 30min then blew again it keeps blowing that fuse

tapping on the “engine” or tapping on the “maf housing?” Jesus.
my 2005 Nissan quest have two trouble code P0113-P0183 , i already replaced
code related sensor , but code is still showing up, when i unplug battery
wires for refresh code and start my vehicle code not appear but when i turn
off engine and start right way again then codes pop up again. Bad sensor
issue is closed because sensors are replaced already , problem is some
thing else, need help
so if its broken then it is bad? right??
How about a sign of “out of breathe?”
Good stuff, cheers!
I have a 1990 Ford Aerostar 4.0L V6 and my engine is running very bad and
lean, but when I unplug the mass air flow sensor, it runs great. So I got a
new mass air flow sensor, but it still is running very bad. What do you
think is wrong?
I appreciate the practical tips on verifying if the sensor is bad or not.
@soldierboy2525 if it runs fine after taking off the MAF then yes this
indicates a bad MAF. repair, clean or replace.
I just wanted to like this twice
I dont think these inappropriate comments are necessary… this is a
helpful video about cars, talking about sex just seems irrelevant.
the best way to check the air flow sensor is using scope volt meter is not
accuracy.

parked i have a 97 bonneville and autozone did a diagnostic and the maf
sensor came back code P0102 can this be the real problem? thanks
