That engine does not have a MAF. It uses a MAP sensor which is mounted on the front of the throttle body.

most MAFs are located in the air intake just in front of the throttle body. Its usually the part of the air intake with the plug stuck in the side.
i had the same problem its the MAFS (mass airflow sensor) they are all screwed and need replaced but u can save money by buying maf cleaner at auto zone it wrkd for myne its located on the tube conected to the air filter
You can get MAFS cleaner at any auto parts store and of course you want to clean the part that goes inside the air tube. Dirt or build up is rarely the problem thogh.
its part of the MAFS
Kerry is the dopest cat on earth. you mafs!
Check the MAFS (mass airflow sensor) It's the silver-ish thing located right after the airbox (in front of the battery). If something is clogging it or if it somehow became disconnected or damaged, the car won't idle. On top of that, the car should not run well with a damaged MAFS at all, but, the most trouble will definetly be at idle. ~PorkPoney
Your Mass Air Flow Sensor (MAFS) is faulty. Check with your local Nissan dealer.
IAT (inlet air temperature) and CTS (or CATS charge air temperature sensor) are the same thing. For most GM engines, like the 5.3L, a MAFS (mass air flow sensor) is used instead of a CATS. The MAFS is the big black cylinder with a wire bundle coming off of it that is between the clean air hose and the air filter box.
It is either in the air filter box or on top of the motor where the hose from the filter connects. It's the size of your fist and has a thick screen that covers the hose from the filter box.
at the throttle body follow the air intake hose from the air filter to the throttle body the mafs is held in by 2 tamper proof torx t-15 or 20 I think
i had this same problem on my 1991 dodge stealth the problem is with the iacv ( isle air control valve) this is located on the throttle body. simpley remove the 4 bolts holding the throttle body canclean it there should be a very smalll hole inside the throtle body. if this gets anything over it the car wont idle. that's the right way to fix the problem. if you don't want to take the time to do it right, then you can pay the extra money on the gas you will have to get to do it the second way. ( scond way {temp fix} ) located on the back of the throttle body you will find a switch connected to a wire that is connected to the gas peddle. there should be a bolt under the switch tightening this bolt will increase your idle rpms. increase it to 1,500 rpms that will get you by for a while but you will have to keep adjusting it. ( the correct way takes about 30 mins i HIGHLEY suggest that you take the time to do it right )good luck could also be several other sensors, mafs mass air flow sensor is also quite common
Assuming you are referring to the Mass Air Flow Sensor it is bolted to the factory air box inline with the intake tube, you will see an electrical connector with several wires coming out of the top. Usually only takes a Philips head screwdriver and a pair of slip joint pliers for the intake tube clamp to replace one.
