1
Most Effective Methods to Clean the Dirty Airflow Mass Sensor
2
Mass air flow sensor is responsible for determining the mass of air entering in your car's fuel injection engine and passes the data to the control unit.
3
In the ECU, the airflow mass sensor is used to deliver the right amount of fuel to the engine as well as balance the fuel level.
4
When your car's mass flow sensor is damaged or faulty then it causes a variety of problems and results in poor performance of the engine.
5
For preventing the mass airflow sensor you need to clean it wether after six months or at the time of oil change.
6
When you are changing or cleaning the air filter will be the best way to save you both time and money in an efficient manner.
7
Here are the most effective methods that can provide you the step-by-step procedures for cleaning your airflow sensor.
8
Remove the sensor
9
For cleaning the mass airflow sensor of your car, the first thing you need to do is take it out from your car.
10
You can remove it by opening your car's air box and using the most flathead screwdrivers to pluck it out.
11
Disconnecting the mass airflow sensors of your car can't electrocute you because the wires are very delicate and small.
12
While removing the airflow sensor make sure that you never touch the wires because the breaking of one wire requires a replacement.
13
Clean the sensor
14
After removing the airflow sensors of your car, the next thing you need to do is clean the sensors through two effective methods.
15
First one is taking your mass airflow sensor and places in a plastic bag which is filled with rubbing alcohol.
16
Take the bag and move it around, make sure that the alcohol washes all the dirt and grime from the airflow sensor.
17
Another option is, buy a mass airflow sensor from a local auto parts store and spray it on your sensor for cleaning it.
18
Dry and reinstall the sensor
19
After cleaning the dirty airflow sensors of the car either through the sensor cleaner or by rubbing the alcohol, leave it for a while.
20
When you have clean the airflow sensor completely, let it leave outside for few minutes generally that would be 20 minutes or more.
21
Make sure that the airflow sensor of your car has to be dry completely before you can install it in your car.
22
If you found that the sensor is dry completely then reinstall it in its place. But, the completely damaged airflow sensor need immediate replacement.
23
Conclusion
24
If you find that the airflow mass sensor of your car is completely dirty then take it to a qualified mechanic for its complete diagnosis.
25
Most of the dirty mass flow sensor has a specific code that should be generated during computer diagnostics.
26
So determine the dirty air flow sensor of your car through the computer testing equipment.
