Video tutorial

In this video, we see how to clean the MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor, which is used to measure the air entering the engine. It is also called a "air flow meter", a term that emphasizes the measurement of air flow, while the term MAF focuses more on the measurement of air mass.

On the Ecosport, this device is easily accessible. If we open the front hood, we can find it on the right side, near the grille: we will need to remove the electrical connector and lift the device after unscrewing the holding screw, which we will clean with a specific spray like the one shown in the video, available on Amazon with the code B00295EEBK for 11.09 euros, with free delivery for Prime customers.

Afterwards, we just need to put it back in place, tighten the screw, and reconnect the electrical connector.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
