• Q: How to replace the Mass Air Flow Sensor with the Intake Air Temperature Sensor on 2010 Cadillac DTS?

  A: The first step to replace Mass Air Flow Sensor with intake Air Temperature Sensor (MAF/IAT) consists of disconnecting the engine harness electrical connector which is attached to the Mass Air Flow Sensor/iat sensor. Remove the air cleaner outlet duct by first unsticking its clamp at the Throttle Body and Mass Air Flow Sensor/iat sensor locations. The replacement process requires removal of Mass Air Flow Sensor/iat sensor bolts before extracting the Mass Air Flow Sensor/iat sensor. During Mass Air Flow Sensor installation maintain proper handling techniques to mitigate damage and keep away liquids along with solvents from coming into contact with the sensor's sensing elements. Apply only a minimal amount of soap-based solution when you install this component. Attach the Mass Air Flow Sensor/iat sensor through its bolts before you tighten them to 4 nm (35 lb in). When reinstalling the air cleaner outlet duct clamp tightly at the Mass Air Flow Sensor/iat sensor to 4 nm (35 lb in) and continue tightening it at the Throttle Body to the identical torque value. The engine harness electrical connector must be reinstalled into the location of the Mass Air Flow Sensor/iat sensor.
