Can you suggest this MAF sensor fix for the Ford Ka to your reader?

I had 2000X Ford Ka and after 10 years it started over-revving at idle. You suggested the MAF sensor needed replacing. Before going down that path, I exercised the MAF sensor cable connection, which cleared the over-revving problem. This may work for SR Farnham.
