Your Nissan Mass Airflow Sensor is responsible for monitoring the air flowing into the engine and provides information to the computer so the fuel injectors can adjust the gasoline going into the air/fuel mixture as needed. When there is a problem with your Nissan Mass Airflow Sensor, there are signs that warn drivers that they need an inspection by a certified technician.
Your Nissan car, truck, crossover, or SUV was engineered with an engine air filter that is responsible for removing dirt, debris, and other airborne contaminants from the air entering your engine’s combustion chamber. Take a look at your vehicle’s grill after driving at night to see exactly what your Nissan Engine Air Filter removes from the air that would otherwise enter the engine and cause serious damages. When your Nissan Engine Air Filter gets clogged over time, it is a serious concern for your engine as well as the performance of other vehicle system components like the Nissan Mass Airflow Sensor.
If your engine air filter becomes clogged it can affect how the mass airflow sensor interprets the incoming air volume. If this happens, your fuel injectors will adjust the air/fuel mix incorrectly to cause the warning signs listed above. In short, a faulty engine air filter can damage the mass airflow sensor because debris that would otherwise be caught by the filter can impact the mass airflow sensor to render it useless. Beyond the threat of damage, dirty air will give the mass airflow sensor wrong data and the wrong air/fuel blend will enter your combustion chamber.
