The air filter sign keeps flickering on the digi meter after changing to a K&N filter.wht do i do?

i just got the stock air filter changed with a K%26amp;N one and since then the air filter sign on the digi meter keeps flickering.should i be cautious or it will do no harm to the engine.please advice me as soon as possible.|||What vehicle is it? One cause could be that the new K%26amp;N filter was over coated with the filter recharge spray (which is what you use when you clean it to reuse it) It may be blocking the flow of air, so what you can do is clean and respray the filter and that may stop the problem. If not then if this vehicle has a MAF or a Mass Air Flow sensor then that could be bad, because it has to sense the air flow, so if it doesn%26#039;t sense the proper amount of flow then it may think the filter is bad which would turn on the air filter light. also make sure that your MAF is plugged in; your MAF is located between your air filter and your throttle body





I hope I was helpful and that this aids in diagnosing your problem!





Good Luck!!!|||What is K%26amp;N?


you should be changing the intake filter


Disconnect the battery and after about a minute connect.
