Do you have to reset anything after replacing the mass air flow sensor?

After replacing the mass air flow (MAF) sensor, it is generally recommended to reset the vehicle's engine control unit (ECU) to ensure it recognizes the new sensor and recalibrates itself. This can often be done by disconnecting the battery for a few minutes or using an OBD-II scanner to clear any fault codes. Additionally, allowing the vehicle to go through a few drive cycles can help the ECU adapt to the new sensor readings. However, in many cases, the vehicle will adjust automatically without manual intervention.
