Thank you for the video. My 2015 Prius two just had a reading on the obd scanner with P0101. So I'll remove and clean it as you've shown here, and if it won't work, I'll replace it.
you don't say anything about to disconnect the batery before you clean the senzor. I think it's important to know all details, because ECU storrage all errors and when you start engine the error "check engine light" on.
disconnecting the battery when you clean the MAF sensor is a good idea, it will reset the computers and improve fuel efficiency if it had gone down because the MAF sensor was dirty. If you don't disconnect the battery, the recalibration of the computers will happen over a bit more time than when the computer is reset with a battery disconnected.
On the 2013 Prius I have, I did this cleaning when it had 60K miles on it, currently it has 74K miles on it. I get on average anywhere between 45-55 miles on a gallon of gas. I don't tend to drive the vehicle to try and maximize my mileage as I tend to speed on the highways as I tend to go with the traffic which is generally 7-10 miles above the posted speed limits. If I maintained a steady speed of 55mph I am sure I'd get higher than normal mileage. @@KevininSC
Depends on how much you drive. How dirty it is there. You just have to clean it enough so that the dirt doesn’t build up and cause issues. I do it every 25,000 miles because I just drive in the city
@@realrandomcarstuff I am no expert- according to the bill, it is “code P0102- traces problem to oper circuit between airflow sensor and EFI 2 fuse- repaired wiring.”
Just did this on my 06. It worked!
Were you getting an error code?

Let me know if it fixes it
2011 Prius. error code: P0171. Will keep you posted if I can try to do my car. Thanks!
Well done and good job!
Thank you man thanks to youtube. Good job!
On the 2013 it's best to remove the airbox first, and then the MAF sensor.
@@KevininSC Easy access from front.

Super helpful. Thank you
Nice job..
I have same cars. Need to clean maf too. One video for 2 cars! Thanks. How much mpg different 2013 vs 2017?
What use to clean it
Those both ur cars? Clean engine bays! Good job!
4:35 skip for the next 50 thousand miles? I assume you live in an area with pretty clean and healthy air.
Do you disconnect the battery before doing this or not?

After how many mileage do clean the mass flow air centre.

Just had mine cleaned and the wiring repaired for 480 dollars.
The MAF wires?

They didn't repair any wiring, they just charged you for it. Dealer I presume?
Hold it down! Never hold it up while cleaning
You can't see what you're doing because you're sweatshirt covers up what you doing
Good job and thanks just next time try and be nicer to mother 🌎. Try and have a cardboard box and oil pan on hand anytime using chemicals.
great vid
