Removal Procedure
- Disconnect the negative battery cable. Refer to Battery Negative Cable Disconnection and Connection in Engine Electrical.
- Disconnect the mass air flow/intake air temperature (MAF/IAT) sensor assembly harness connector.
- Separate the MAF/IAT sensor assembly and the air inlet tube by loosening the hose clamp.
- Remove the air cleaner tube by pulling upward until the mounting studs are free from the assembly grommets.
Caution: Unless directed otherwise, the ignition and start switch must be in the OFF or LOCK position, and all electrical loads must be OFF before servicing any electrical component. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent an electrical spark should a tool or equipment come in contact with an exposed electrical terminal. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or its components.
Installation Procedure
- Install the air cleaner assembly by pressing downward on the assembly until the grommets are seated.
- Connect the MAF/IAT sensor assembly and the air inlet tube by tightening the hose clamp.
- Connect the MAF/IAT sensor assembly harness connector.
- Connect the negative battery cable. Refer to Battery Negative Cable Disconnection and Connection in Engine Electrical.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Tighten
Tighten the clamp to 4 N·m (35 lb in.).
