Detailed Product Overview

Delphi AF10579 is engineered for vehicles that use a probe-only mass air flow sensor configuration. It is a direct-fit emission control sensor for 1990-1994 Nissan D21, 1995 Nissan Pickup, and 1996 Nissan Pickup applications noted as probe only to 01/1996. If you are searching for a Nissan Pickup MAF sensor or a Nissan D21 mass air flow sensor replacement, AF10579 provides the correct connector style, terminal layout, and bolt-on mounting format for the listed vehicles.

Delphi draws on more than a century of OE experience and supplier knowledge used by major automakers, bringing OE-based design and manufacturing practices to this aftermarket sensor. This part cross-references Cardone New 86-50052 and Cardone Reman 74-50052 for the same application.

What This Sensor Helps Address

  • Rough idle caused by inaccurate airflow readings
  • Hesitation or stumble during acceleration
  • Lean or rich fuel mixture concerns tied to MAF signal errors
  • Check engine light conditions related to mass air flow sensor faults
  • Poor drivability on probe-only Nissan Pickup and Nissan D21 applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle uses a probe-only mass air flow sensor before ordering. This AF10579 unit uses a female oval connector, 3 blade terminals, and bolt-on mounting, so connector shape and terminal count should be matched to the original part before installation. No housing or wiring harness is included, so reuse the existing vehicle-side components where applicable. Verify the application notes carefully for 1996 Nissan Pickup models, which are listed as probe only to 01/1996.

Quality Assurance

Delphi builds this sensor to OEM standard specifications using OE heritage and application knowledge developed through long-term supplier experience with leading automakers. That background supports consistent fitment and sensor design for the listed Nissan Pickup and Nissan D21 applications.
