Most Effective Methods to Clean the Dirty Airflow Mass Sensor

Description:

A mass air flow sensor is responsible for determining the mass of air entering into the car's fuel injectors and sending the data to the control unit. A right balance of air-fuel mixture is important to get an optimum efficiency. Over time the mass air flow sensor gets dirty and needs to be cleaned or replaced if required. The process of cleaning mainly consists of removing, cleaning, drying and reinstalling the sensor properly. In order to know more about the methods to clean a dirty mass air flow sensor, see the following s. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Title: Most Effective Methods to Clean the Dirty Airflow Mass Sensor


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.
