@careyautorepairs Год назад

I love how fuel trim data can point to fuel problems or air leak problems to do smoke pressure tests too. Such a cool and easy bit of knowledge every man / woman should know. They should add this knowledge to a driving theory test to help bring vehicle emissions down a little for the DIY people that would do it if they knew.

@josephgray3738 6 лет назад

ScannerDanner, I can't thank you enough for this walkthrough!! I have an '01 GS300 for a few months now, and the performance/MPG has been dropping significantly. I logged into my OB2 Scanner today to look at some live stats, and saw a pending P0174 code (lean Bank 2). I followed your steps with some q-tips and MAF cleaner, and sure enough a dirty MAF was the problem! The ST & LT numbers I was getting after the cleaning were pretty much the same you saw after your cleaning.

Great fix. Money in the bank. You are so right about it not always getting paid for what you, it's also what you know. Someone could go chasing a fuel pressure problem for hours and ring up a big charge for the customer. If I had to guess on the battery drain, it'd be whatever's connected to that big stereo cable!

@JohnDoe-uq3mx 8 лет назад

After watching this video, I cleaned one blackened MAF thermistor, or whatever they call them. It fixed like 4 problems. Before that, the idle was a shred too high at times, it would spark knock just as it fired up, it would spark knock when accelerating, and excessive exhaust odor was noticable when idling in park. The spark knock problems developed more recently. Carb cleaner and a Q-tip fixed all of those things right up..

@jacktran960 6 лет назад

John Doe you're not supposed to touch any part of the sensor aside from the plastic. Touching the metal wiring with a q tip could damage it

@darnell7071 9 лет назад

Great job SD! That is exactly how almost every tech at every Toyota/Lexus dealership I have ever worked at cleans the MAF. It works! Sometimes just spraying it with that MAF cleaner will not get the wire completely clean and the car will come back.

I watched one of your brothes video on maf sensors with same code and the next day i got an explorer with same problem. James danner video pointed at a low baro hz. My baro was at 130 hz and after cleaning the maf and driving for a day it recalculated the baro hz to 151.something to add to list of pids to check. Your brothers videos are great too.

@mohadhady9862 8 лет назад

Hi SD. I watched a lot of your videos which helped me to fix my Lincoln Town Car repair issues. I used CRC. MAF sensor cleaner and never used brake cleaner which is oily and neither any sharp object to clean it, because the sensor is too sensitive and would break very easily . Why somebody take a risk against $8.00 only.! Thanks.

Good video and well informed. MAFS are different. Some have huge wires to the resistivity sensors and some have angel hair. If your stuck on the road with a spitting and sputtering engine and need help fast, this video can be a life saver. Take it from there and use some common sense. Of course using the proper air filter and changing it regularly can avoid most of theses problems.

@DavidUM-ui6es 9 лет назад

I just had an experienced with a failing MAF that was interesting. (3 wire analog Hitachi MAF in a '99 Nissan.) I had fuel trims that were high at idle (well over 20%), improving as the throttle opened. First hypothesis is a vacuum leak - but testing shows no leak. Also no evidence for fuel delivery problems. Fuel pressure, injectors, O2 sensors, etc all check out fine. I cleaned the MAF - with CRC spray stuff - no screwdriver! - no change. Also, using a DVOM, MAF voltage measured within factory specs at idle, 2500 rpm, 4000 rpm. The MAF also passed the test from your book: over 4 volts at WOT under load. No problem with harness, connectors, grounds, etc. The only clue was what I found with the scan tool: Even though idle was stable, the reported MAF grams/second reading at idle was varying by a lot: from 2.8 g/s to above 4.0 g/s. Why such a large swing when idle RPM isn't changing? Also, there was an inverse correlation between MAF output and fuel trim: Idle fuel trim was highest when MAF reported g/s was lowest. Replacing the MAF fixed the problem. The MAF was underreporting air flow at idle, but did better at throttle positions above idle.

Just confirmed whats was going on with the BMW 530I in the shop,the car came in with an air leak, intake was torn, disa valve was leaking, i also replaced the pcv control valve. Fuel trim now is minus at idle which indicates to me there's no vacuum leak anymore, as soon as i start driving , fuel trim bcomes excessively positive.By the way I contacted you two days agoon your site about the ebook code , reply was fast, thx Danner.

@OscarSegundo Год назад

It also helped the idle, it was idling before the cleaning at around 550. After the cleaning it went up within spec at 700

I’ve cleaned so many MAFs on Toyota products and fixed them right up. I’d always start there. Takes nothing to clean them up. For some reason.. (I’m guessing crappy paper filtration) they tend to dirty up real easy. It really is the first thing I check on Toyota’s for rough running and rich/lean conditions.

with 170k on my toyota echo I finally replaced the MAF sensor and corrected the P0171 code lean run error. no amount of cleaning would fix the original sensor. it lasted a long time. now the replacement was 19 bucks and it corrected all the problems. price coming down on MAF sensors for older car. looking at the original sensor its clean but just does not work properly anymore.

@OShackHennessy 2 года назад

I’m a little confused on the negative trim with a dirty MAF. Just trying to learn this but that got me.

@ScannerDanner 2 года назад

Only at idle. You'll still have lean conditions all other times. The best description that I've ever heard as far as this condition goes is at times of low air flow rates and larger surface area of the mass air flow due to the contaminants it actually dissipates more heat hence the rich condition

@OShackHennessy 2 года назад

@@ScannerDanner Thank you for answering. I was approaching this under the premise that the contaminants on the MAF acted as an insulator thus falsely lowering the amount of voltage required to maintain constant MAF temperature under all conditions.

Schrodingers Box or knock the grime off with a handy sledge hammer.

Schrodingers Box Nah. Can only use a bench grinder on the open types like GM. The pocket type MAF requires a Dremel carbide burr (followed by black emery on a buffing cone for the Special Deluxe Two Stage Cleaning Package).
