Yes, a dirty air filter can cause sensor codes to be triggered in a vehicle. When the air filter is clogged, it restricts airflow to the engine, which can lead to poor combustion and affect various sensors, such as the mass airflow sensor (MAF) or oxygen sensors. This disruption can result in the engine control unit (ECU) detecting abnormal readings, ultimately leading to a check engine light and diagnostic trouble codes. Regularly replacing the air filter can help prevent these issues.
