What are the symptoms of a broken MAF?

Yesterday I set about removing my airbox, maf, throttle body and upper plenum to fit the 2006 velocity stack, and a plenum spacer... and a thorough clean while I'm in there.

 

My MAF was sat on my workbench, and got knocked off by a Rube Goldberg-esque chain of events... landing from 3 foot onto a concrete floor... can't be good for it!

 

If it's now broken, after refitting, how will I know? What are the tell-tale signs of a broken MAF?

Bad idle or engine shutting off etc. Refit it all and star up the car. If idles fine, give it few little revs...if thats ok, then take it for a little spin by the house - if drives ok, then you're lucky lol if not, you can buy used OEM MAF quite cheap.
