Contact cleaners tend to leave a residue to slow corrosion of contacts. That will gather dirt and make the MAF get dirty quicker.

One Ford garage did clean mine and it ran for a year. The engine smelled like carburetor and fuel injector spray cleaner. The sensing parts are platinum wires and are very delicate.

I've heard that NAPA has a product probably from CRC espially made for the purpose of cleaning MAF. Now that I'm running on a new MAF with a new Motorcraft filter, I've not looked for that cleaner.

If you break one of the wires in the MAF, you are walking until you buy a new one. I'm not sure the computer showed anything for the contaminated MAF either. Certainly there was no consistent check engine light.
