How does the MAF sensor work on a Nissan Rogue?
A MAF sensor measures the density of the air entering the intake manifold. It passes this information onto your Rogue’s ECU. The ECU uses this information along with other sensor data to control the amount of fuel that enters the combustion chamber.
What happens if your MAF sensor is bad?
The mass airflow sensor (commonly abbreviated to MAF) is one of the most important engine management sensors. A bad mass airflow sensor can leave your Nissan Rogue’s engine running rough, or even inoperable.
Why are resistors connected to the IAT sensor?
This is, a resistor connected in some way to Intake Air Temperature sensor (IAT), to “fool” the ECM into “thinking” that incoming air is cold, hoping that the ECM will inject more fuel to compensate for the “colder” air. ECMs are programmed to compensate in some way when the air is colder, as colder air carries more oxygen for being denser.
Where is the MAF sensor on a Nissan Murano?
Locate the MAF Sensor – It’ll be in between the air filter and the throttle body. Remove the Sensor- Take care not to damage the wiring harness or the connector pins that receive the harness in the MAF. Simple hand tools will be all that you need to complete the job.

How does a MAF sensor connector work on a car?
Some automotive harnesses use a style of pin that snaps in and you can get the tools to push them back out. Then all you have to do is crimp or solder the wire to the new pin, push it into the connector and splice it onto the air temp wire. Wires and cables in harsh environments can get brittle and snap.

How to fix a MAF sensor on an Altima?
2. get a small screw and screw it into the hole where the wire originally went , then solder the wire on to the screw and use heat shrink tubing to seal the connection . 3. go to a junk yard and cut the harness off of another 2005-2006 altima . good luck and tell us how it goes , try to take pics of how you fix the problem and post them .
