How is the Mass Air Flow Sensor Serviced on Lincoln Navigator?

Service of the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor begins with removing the air cleaner lid followed by disconnecting the extension harness connector from the wiring harness. You should untighten the air cleaner clamp before separating the air cleaner inlet from its outlet while maintaining the MAF sensor sensing elements intact to prevent unit failure. The MAF sensor body functions with its module as one complete serviceable unit. You should cut the tape on the wire loom of the extension harness after which you can peel the wrapper near the air cleaner's grommet. Free the outlet grommet from the air cleaner then use it to slide down the extension harness length. The MAF sensor plate and sensor must be detached from the outlet side of the air cleaner while disconnecting the MAF sensor electrical connector from the extension harness before removing the nuts that separate sensor plate from sensor. To install replace all parts in reverse order while making sure the grommet at the extension harness completely covers the engine air cleaner housing to avoid engine intake of unmetered air. Position the air cleaner using the alignment notch to achieve proper alignment between the inlet and outlet of both sides.

How to Service the Mass Air Flow Sensor on Lincoln Town Car?

Start service of the mass air flow (MAF) sensor by disconnecting its electrical connection. You should first remove the electrical connector and then uninstall the MAF sensor by taking out the two retaining screws. Apply the reverse order of steps during installation while tightening the screws to 6 Nm (53 lb-in).

Lincoln Mass Air Flow Sensor

If you own Lincoln and want to keep it in top shape, choosing OEM Mass Air Flow Sensor is a smart move. They are precisely engineered and follow strict factory standards. They are made in advanced facilities that use cutting edge technology. Each part goes through thorough testing to confirm strength and safety, so you can trust it. FordPartsDeal.com gives you genuine Lincoln Mass Air Flow Sensor at some of the affordable online prices without cutting quality. Every OEM Lincoln part includes the manufacturer's warranty, easy returns, and super-fast delivery. So why wait? Shop now and get your vehicle back to peak condition.

Lincoln Mass Air Flow Sensor immediately measures the incoming air so that the combustion process can be smooth and the fuel consumption can be honest. Lincoln delivers its Quiet Flight vision by sealing door holes, stuffing cabins with hush mats and soundproofing all the panels to shut out the road noise. Lincoln matches this calm with Co-Pilot360 devices that will blink alerts, pull the wheel when the lanes swerve and flick high beams during darker areas. ActiveGlide is also rolled out by Lincoln in such a way that the hands of the cruisers are fallen but they remain at the center whereas the car is observing the traffic like a hawk. Lincoln smothers touch screens with smooth fabric, replaces spots where screens are bright and continues to upgrade technology since customers have a voice and the brand listens. In the throttle body, the Mass Air Flow Sensor is located and it measures the number of gulps of air in real time to inform the computer on the amount of fuel to squirt to provide clean power with each press of the pedal. Some oily Mass Air Flow Sensor distorts that number and the mix becomes rich and the spark fires and the idle swells and the gas guzzles. Washing the Mass Air Flow Sensor or changing it to a new hot-wire unit snaps throttle action back and prevents unplanned stalls during hot weather as well.
