Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2005 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The mass air flow (MAF) sensor measures the mass of air flowing into the engine. The MAF sensor output signal is used by the PCM to calculate injector pulse width. For transmission strategies the MAF sensor is used to regulate electronic pressure control, shift and torque converter clutch scheduling.
