sound like you spell it for MAT (Manifold Air Temp)?. Anyway IAT (Intake Air
Here are some photos - Ford Explorer 2002:
I am surprised to see some squirrel footprints on the top of black plastic covers. Maybe, some mouse footprints - not very good sign. I don't see any cut wires or pipe holes from the animal bites.
A few days ago, I went to the store, and you mentioned that it is a free service. The man checked on my truck with his coder device. The coder stated, "Troubleshooting P1151. OEM Brand: Ford"
He looked up on his computer that says:
"Lack of 02 switches-bnk 2 sensor 1 Explanation
ECM could not adjust fuel trim because of a lean or rich condition
Probable cause:
1. - Fuel pressure high or low
2. - MAF sensor dirty/defective
3. - Vacuum leak on engine
4. - Leaking fuel injector or fuel pressure regulator"
It turned out that there is one defective, but it solved the problem easily by cleaning out with a "air flow sensor cleaner" (sprayer) inside the part between the air filter and to the motor. There are two tiny rods inside the part. One of the rods was dirty. It took a few minutes for me to clean out the dirty on the rod. The engine light on the dashboard is off in the next day. Whew!
I don't remember the name of the part - see the picture with a yellow circle.
I only paid about ten dollars for the sprayer. I'm happy about that. I saved about 200 dollars for not taking my truck to a repair shop. Thank you!

The tiny rods in the a MAF sensor are referring to "Hot Bulb". Well, the P0151 or P1151 that you states is the heated oxgyen sensor is not switching, means the voltage is not counting over .800mv or below .175mv, sounds like lazy O2 sensor. Clean a MAF sensor is may not fix the Code P0151/P1151 cuz the Bank 2 and sensor 1 as B2/1 is locating on the left bank (driver side) I think. The sensor 1 is upstream (front of the cat converter). Only I want to see the P0151/P1151 is to view the freeze frames and hook up scope on the O2 sensors to see the waveform. Some techs enrich the engine by slashing small amount of top engine cleaner into intake manifold to force the lazy O2 sensor(s) to wake up and working up the counts. Temporary fix. Hey, make sure the O2 sensor on left bank have a free of oil saturated. If so, replace O2 sensor ( don't drop a new O2 sensor on the floor) Not too expensive about $ 45 to $85 dollars. Never buy a new O2 sensor with pre cut wires.A few days ago, I went to the store, and you mentioned that it is a free service. The man checked on my truck with his coder device.

Ok the labor called out for remove and install new O2 sensor on the car is one hour typical. They doesnt include solder or crimp the ends. Most part stores sell ready install or fit right first time O2 sensors. We at the gas station, orderO2 sensor with pre cut wires? I replaced my old O2S with new O2S pre cut wires in four years ago for my Subaru. You must hate to use soldering.
No, O2 sensor/ dirty MAF sensor can cause P0151/P1151. I didnt solve yet. Other cause is vacuum leaking around the intake manifold or PCV lines.
Yeah, I notice my hearing techs are not good solders. I taught my deafie tech, he learned the soldering process in one hour. At the warehouse that they sell the Denso O2 sensors for $25 and up that fit all the makers. I did ordered a new O2 sensor for my car that cost me $45 dollars. Not bad. The expensive O2 sensor is A/F sesnor, cost over $150 a piece, maybe $300 A/F sensor from dealer.
Yes, both should cause problem but hard to tell without look engine.:Oops: I misread you.You just missed my post and you had no idea what I was talk about.
