Mass Air Sensor
I have a 98 Explorer V-6 and durng warm weather I get a loud whine coming from my air intake near the mass flow sensor. Has anyone else had this problem and if so did replacing the sensor fix the problem??

Mass Air Sensor
I have a '95 and in hot weather I get a humming noise . it almost sounds like a muffled car horn.
the noise comes from my air intake and I thought I would be an idiot and waste $200 on a new mass air flow sensor.
needless to say it solved nothing.
I have had the humming noise for about 2 years now. a few mechanics looked at it and basically said since they cant track it down then ignore it. after a few months I realized that they are probably right.
My mileage is 16.5 in new york city traffic so i don't think anything is really wrong.
and from now on I'm only changing sensors if the computer says something is wrong, or I really have something to go on
good luck
