Product Description
CARDONE Remanufactured Mass Air Flow Sensors (MAFS) precisely track O.E. output curves and maintain specific tolerances to ensure accurate scan tool readings for proper operation. 100% re-soldering of critical components ensures superior electrical connections, eliminates intermittent failures and lengthens product life. With CARDONE Mass Air Flow Sensors (MAFS), you can expect smooth vehicle performance.
Product & Technical
How can I determine if the MAF/VANE air flow sensor is bad?
Visually inspect the sensor element in the MAF for damage or for a burnt smell. In the VANE AIRFLOW sensor, inspect the door for binding or for a burnt smell. Check for diagnostic trouble codes with a scanner.How can a malfunctioning MAF/VANE air flow sensor affect my vehicles’ operation?
A malfunctioning MAF/VANE air flow sensor can cause any one or more of the following symptoms: hesitation, stalling, poor fuel economy or poor engine performance.What are the most common causes of MAF/VANE air flow sensor problems?
Over-voltage sources from relays, short circuited wiring, cracked printed circuit boards, moisture entering the unit through split air ducts, electrical connections and wiring, air intake obstructions or gas/oil fumes from the engine can cause failure. Check air filter and air ways for dirt or debris. Check for loose or faulty connectors and broken or faulty wiring. Be sure to check these to prevent damage to the replacement unit.What goes bad in vane air flow type units?
The most common causes are: a worn vane assembly, a cracked housing, or a cracked printed circuit board. These conditions all require unit replacement.What goes bad in MAF sensors?
The most common causes are: cracked circuit boards, burnt sensing elements, poor solder joints, deteriorated conformal coating, or loose printed circuit board components.
Core
What is a core? A core is a used automotive part that is returned to the remanufacturer instead of being scrapped. Why return cores? Cores are literally at the “core” of the remanufacturing process, because they are the raw material used to start the remanufacturing process. That’s why remanufacturers buy cores back from customers, and they pay the most for good quality cores. If a core has too much damage in key areas, it may be unusable or require extra resources to process; therefore a reduced core payment may be awarded. This core policy explains potential deductions that may be taken from the core price if certain components are missing or damaged. What is remanufacturing? Remanufacturing is the process of taking used parts, completely disassembling and thoroughly cleaning them, replacing the worn components with original quality components, and restoring them to their original function. Every unit is 100% tested to ensure O.E. performance. Why “reman”? PRODUCTS - Reman captures used, durable goods like auto parts and puts them “back on the road” to new and sometimes better than new performance. Reman provides the opportunity for detection of common failure modes and incorporation of design improvements to prevent repeat failure.ECONOMY - Reman products cost consumers about 40% less than new. Reman products are one of the few “green” products that actually costs less than their “non-green” counterparts.
ENVIRONMENTAL - Reman saves up to 86% of the energy required to build a new unit. Reman realizes Greenhouse Gas savings of up to 25 lbs. per unit over new. Reman saves up to 85% of the raw material required to produce a new unit by reusing existing products. Reman is even more sustainable than recycling, as product castings are preserved rather than melted down to raw material, saving energy and reducing emissions.
