How do you clean the MAF sensor on a Ford Ecosport MK1?

Model: Ford Ecosport BK, MK 1 - Years 2012-2023
Part: MAF sensor

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.
