The sensor is on the air outlet tube from the air cleaner to the throttle body.

WHat was the code?? check to make sure there are no broken wires.

autozne has a repair manual with pics, jsut need to register.

hope this helps

No. MAF is usually at the air filter. AIr temps sensor according to the pic on autozone is in the middle of air duct hose. Look it up on the autozone.com repair manual, it will help you out.
