How to Clean MAF sensor // Mazda CX5 Mazda CX3 Mazda 2 Mazda 3 Mazda 6 Biante

[@robzee9707]

I have had so much trouble with my 2012 cx5 with the engine light coming on, took it to mazda and they were going to charge me $850 to replace the sensor, tried your method and it fixed the issue, you are a legend.

dammmm. $850 that is alil bit too much. Glad u fix the issue :) 👍

Hi Felix Curious on if you would make a video on cleaning the IAC (Idle Air Control valve)? Thank you for all your videos! Love the basic maintenance series! They have helped me consider getting a used Mazda 6 (2014+) because of how "relatively" simple to do in the driveway with simple tools.

So that way we do not risk of shorting the electrical system or any of electrical components whilst doing the service. Better takes a couple of seconds to loosen the neg battery terminal. Cheers.

CRC mass air flow sensor, is the appropriate, application for what you're doing. Not the electrical cleaner. My dealership told me that. But your procedure is correct.

[@GarasiFelixDan]

if you have the MAF sensor cleaner , it would be much better. Otherwise you can follow this video and most of my cars uses CRC electrical cleaner for all electrical parts including cleaning the Maf sensor without any problems.

I was at it again for almost an hour trying to figure out how to remove the MAP sensor harness without a destroying it. My first car which was a 1974 Fiat Super Brava that I posted for sale and was bought by a master mechanic said even if theres any problem that I didn't mention it's cool. So I didn't tell him that 80% of the harnesses connected to the engine was already broken. He called after a week he said wtf?!! complaining. I said I dunno what u talking about> You said it ain't a problem.

Ketika mobil jalan atau berakselerasi mesin masih responsif, tarikan enteng. Namun konsumsi BBM lebih boros dari biasanya. Saya sudah coba bersihkan semua busi, ganti filter udara, bersihkan throttle body dan bersihkan sensor MAF. Mohon petunjuk itu kenapa ya Suhu?

[@karateboi1988]

What does cleaning this do? Also has Anyone have starting issues with mazda cx5

[@GarasiFelixDan]

To restore back engine performance . Your engine needs the proper air/fuel ratio to run correctly. The Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor plays a critical role within the fuel management system to ensure the ratio is correct. The MAF sensor monitors the temperature and amount of air entering your engine.

​@67nole302 my 2013 cx5 2.0 hesitates badly until I stomp on the accelerator and then it wakes back up. There's no sputtering, jerking and no check engine lights. Is this similar to what you experienced? I'm just hoping I don't need new injectors, coil packs, fuel pump or fuel filter. I'm praying that some sea foam treatment and this maf cleaner will solve it. But the battery did show a "below threshold " reading.

As i do not own a skyactiv diesel but from research, best is to go underneath the vehicle and check the catalytic converter there should be 2 metal tube . Just follow & trace that metal tube to the engine bay , the sensor might be hidden behind the engine block, or somewhere near there .

If it gets really dirty with contaminant then yes it would trigger the engine light to comes on but then if you have a engine light your best bet is to hook up OBD reader into your vehicle to see where the engine code light coming from.

[@Vituzz0]

Hi Felix. Thanks for the your video and interesting information. But I think your way is wrong. The main goal is to clean the sensitive element of this sensor. But it is inside the sensors body. An air channel leads to it. And you clean only the sensors body outside and the resistor, which is located on top of the case. Maybe I'm wrong. Add the video where one guy opens the sensor body kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZK2ZqieYtKrgZo

[@GarasiFelixDan]

I wouldnt go that far. If you were to splice it open .. might aswell buy new ones . Cleaning the outside area is fine it will still improve the efficiency of the maf sensor as you dont want any oil sludge on it.
