Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the mass air flow sensor on this 2003 Chevy Monte Carlo with a 3.4-liter V6 engine. The items you'll need for this are a new mass air flow sensor from 1AAuto.com and a flat blade screwdriver.
Your mass air flow sensors right here, and on either side of it, there's these two hose clamps. Just loosen both of those up with a flat blade screwdriver. Now, pull your intake hose back and free from the intake box. Then just pull the mass air flow sensor out. Then lift up the tab and disconnect the harness and pull this small hose free.
Take the smaller piece of hose and put that tab in between those two slots as you push it into place.
On the left is the old mass air flow sensor; on the right is the new one from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical and they'll fit exactly the same. Take your new mass air flow sensor, and you wanted it at this angle. You want to just fit it into that larger part of the intake hose first, and that arrow on the mass air flow sensor should be lining up with the mark on the hose. Then just tighten up the hose clamp.
Now push the mass air flow sensor into the smaller part of the hose on the air intake box, and then tighten up that hose clamp. Reconnect the harness and you're all set.
