Removal Procedure

    Object Number: 602337 Size: SH
  1. Disconnect the mass air flow/intake air temperature (MAF/IAT) sensor electrical connector (1).
  2. Remove the clamps securing the MAF/IAT sensor assembly to the air cleaner and intake air duct.

    3. Notice: 

       ā€¢ Handle the MAF sensor carefully.
       ā€¢ Do not drop the MAF sensor in order to prevent damage to the MAF sensor.
       ā€¢ Do not damage the screen located on the air inlet end of the MAF.
       ā€¢ Do not touch the sensing elements.
       ā€¢ Do not allow solvents and lubricants to come in contact with the sensing elements.
       ā€¢ Use a small amount of a soap based solution in order to aid in the installation.

  3. Carefully remove the MAF/IAT sensor from the air cleaner and intake air duct.

Installation Procedure

    Object Number: 602337 Size: SH

    Notice: 

       ā€¢ Handle the MAF sensor carefully.
       ā€¢ Do not drop the MAF sensor in order to prevent damage to the MAF sensor.
       ā€¢ Do not damage the screen located on the air inlet end of the MAF.
       ā€¢ Do not touch the sensing elements.
       ā€¢ Do not allow solvents and lubricants to come in contact with the sensing elements.
       ā€¢ Use a small amount of a soap based solution in order to aid in the installation.

  1. Carefully install the MAF/IAT sensor (1) into the air cleaner and intake air duct.

    2. Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

  2. Install the clamps securing the MAF/IAT sensor assembly to the air cleaner and intake air duct.

    3. Tighten
    Tighten the clamps to 3 NĀ·m (27 lb in).

  3. Reconnect the MAF/IAT sensor electrical connector (1).
