Both are 18-pin connectors with the same mating interface. If your original connector is stamped with either part number, either variant can be used as a replacement — verify the housing color and locking mechanism match your original before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ: How do I diagnose a MAF sensor connector fault on Land Rover Discovery 3\/4?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDisconnect the MAF sensor connector and inspect all 18 terminals for corrosion. Use a multimeter to measure the MAF sensor output voltage with the engine running — a good MAF sensor should produce a voltage that increases with engine RPM (typically 0.5–4.5V for a frequency-type MAF). If the sensor output is correct at the sensor terminals but the ECU still reports a MAF fault, the fault is in the connector or wiring between the sensor and ECU. Use a JLR-compatible scan tool (IDS, SDD, or Pathfinder) to read live MAF data and confirm the fault location.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ: Can a faulty MAF connector cause poor fuel economy on Range Rover?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — a corroded MAF connector terminal causes the ECU to receive an incorrect airflow signal, resulting in an incorrect air\/fuel mixture. This manifests as poor fuel economy (ECU running rich to compensate for perceived low airflow), rough idle, hesitation under acceleration, and black smoke from the exhaust. These symptoms are often attributed to fuel injector or fuel system faults — always check the MAF connector first as it is the most common and cheapest fix.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Keszoox","offers":[{"title":"Male Connector Set","offer_id":47394040545515,"sku":"14:200004891#Male Connector Set","price":9.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Female Connector Set","offer_id":47394040578283,"sku":"14:200003699#Female Connector Set","price":13.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15cm wire","offer_id":47394040611051,"sku":"14:200002130#15cm wire","price":40.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/1005\/8731\/files\/18-pin-1488533-5-ecu-socket-main.webp?v=1770356028","url":"https:\/\/keszoox.com\/products\/18-pin-1488533-5-ecu-socket-automotive-air-flow-meter-plug-acc-cruise-connector-for-land-rover-ford-range-rover","provider":"Keszoox","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
