Hey guys, my 01' accord is throwing a code for the mass air flow sensor and I'm trying to figure out if A. Where it is, B. If it could be cleaned and that would solve the problem, or C. I need a new one or something. Could anyone give me any clue? I'm a n00b...thanks

 

bump

 

If I'm right its right on top of your throttle body or intake and is really small. Its a sensor not a valve so it isn't exposed to crap. If yours is similar to the 5th gen it should be really easy to take care off. Just undo 2 screws.

 

Whats the code?
V6?
Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor?

I'd have to go up to work to figure out what the code is to be sure, so i guess ill have to do that soon

 

This is the best I could do without having more info;

Is this a part that I need to be worried about getting fixed or what?

 

Uh if thats what your asking about and your code is giving, yes. Do you have a V6, because if not, that might not be the same reason
your MAP is dysfunctional.

 

no i have an i4, any idea how much this thing may cost me and if there's anywhere else I could get it other than through honda?

come on, look for yourself, there are places that sell parts online.
Not sure about this one but its a start:

Most seem to be 60-70$

 

the map controls your fuel curve depending on the incomeing air pressure. if it is sending a code it is most likely running hell a rich in defualt mode.

 

so im guessing it's fairly easy to replace?

 

look for yourself, I told you it's right on top of your throttle body. Look at a diagram online if you need it.
