Assume you mean the MAF. You don`t clean them as there`s a high risk of damaging it

If its bust, replace. Cleaning will break it.

Not going against what TB and Rob have said cos obviously they've had experience of them breaking but I have used electrical contact cleaner and it hasn't caused a problem.

However, I have no evidence that it would cure a faulty or ''dirty'' one. I just did mine as a bit of preventative.

I'd say if it was faulty there's no harm trying the contact cleaner (not carb cleaner) as you'll be replacing the part anyway. But they are pretty sensitive things so you may get mixed results.... would be interested to know if one was ever cured by that though  :-\
