Detailed Description

Walker 245-1710 is a mass air flow sensor engineered for direct replacement in sensor-only applications. The part number 245-1710 is part of Walker’s Sensor Only line, which focuses on replacement sensors rather than complete housing assemblies. For Ram 1500 and Jeep Grand Wagoneer, Grand Wagoneer L, Wagoneer, and Wagoneer L applications, this sensor supports accurate airflow measurement for engine management and emission control.

Walker Products programs and tests its MAF sensors for fit, form, and function before release, and the company states that many of its MAF parts are manufactured in the USA using OEM-quality components and custom-engineered circuit boards. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What This Part Helps Address

• Rough idle caused by inaccurate airflow readings.
• Check engine light conditions related to MAF sensor performance.
• Fuel trim issues from incorrect air metering.
• Driveability problems tied to sensor signal inconsistency.
• Replacement needs when the original sensor is no longer performing correctly.

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the connector style, wire count, and sensor-only configuration before installation. The included wiring harness helps support replacement of the sensor connection point, and the oblong connector shape should be matched to the vehicle harness before assembly. Clean surrounding intake components before installing the new sensor to reduce contamination risk.

Quality Assurance

Walker states that its MAF sensors are 100% new, never remanufactured, and production-tested for fit, form, and function. The brand also notes ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 certification and on-vehicle verification during calibration development.
