    The most important step was missed.. disconnect a battery!!... then when you replace your sensor you have to start your vehicle and let it sit for 3 minutes without cranking it. It will reset mass air flow sensor. And SYNC throttle body...

    Do you need to remove the engine cover just to pull out the mass airflow sensor?

      @@mlndmccoy66 The engine hesitation I had when in idle was solved just cleaning (youtubeCRC mass airflow sensor cleaner) the mass air flow sensor. You don't need to remove the entire engine cover to get to it, just basically 2 screws on the back if it and don't forget to pull the connection out.
      If that doesn't help then I guess you may need to change the TPS(Throttle body position sensor) it can't be serviced its sealed in with the throttle body and something about the 2010 models having a recall, this video may help ruclips.net/video/ovavm45iCMA/видео.html. Hope this helps you, oh and I'm no mechanic just another 😪 Chevy Malibu owner

      you can already see that one screw ( on the sensor )was removed when he starts taking out the engine cover. prolly didnt have a stubby screw driver to remove the other screw , so he removed the cover.

    Could a bad air sensor cause engine power reduced mode?

    • @leegasu4790
      @leegasu4790 Год назад +1

      Yep, exactly what happened to me. To test if it if the sensor disconnected the electrical connected to the filter cover and start it. If it starts up normal you're good and just need to replace that sensor

      I see you asked this 3 months ago but I’m having this issue now. I had a friend come last night and he completely disconnected mine and my car ran great. I’m going to be replacing it but he told me I could probably drive it for years with no problem. Before he disconnected it, it was spitting and sputtering.🤷‍♀️

      If the car is still running after pulling the sensor, you need a new one

    My 2011 4 cyl malibus engine cuts out when heading up a hill n has a lack of power if goin up a hill. I've replaced both camshaft position sensors and removed the catalytic converters and changed the o2 sensors in the catalytic converter. Still it lacks power when under a load such as goin up a hill. Anyone out there have Any idea what could be the problem? I'd sure appreciate it

      I can't afford process of elimination. But maybe the mass air sensor?
