The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor has a 5V reference circuit, a low reference circuit, and a signal circuit. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5V to the MAP sensor on the 5V reference circuit, and provides a ground for the low reference circuit. The MAP sensor provides a voltage signal to the ECM on the signal circuit relative to the intake manifold pressure changes.

Circuit/System Verification

  1. Verify that DTC P0641 or P0651 is not set.
  2. If any of the DTCs are set refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle.
  3. Ignition ON, observe the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter. The reading should be between 0.20-4.80V.
  4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.

Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF for 90 seconds, disconnect the harness connector at the B74 MAP sensor.
  2. Test for less than 5Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
  3. If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
  4. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2V between the 5V reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
  5. If less than the specified range, test the 5V reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
    If greater than the specified range, test the 5V reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
  6. Verify the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter is less than 1 kPa.
  7. If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 3 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
  8. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 3 and the 5V reference circuit terminal 1. Verify the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter is greater than 126 kPa.
  9. If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM.
  10. If the circuits test normal, test or replace the B74 MAP sensor.

Component Testing

Note: You must perform the Circuit/System Testing in order to verify the integrity of the MAP sensor circuits before proceeding with the Component Testing.

Erratic Signal Test

  1. Ignition OFF, remove the MAP sensor.
  2. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the 5V reference circuit terminal 1 and the corresponding terminal of the B74 MAP sensor.
  3. Install a jumper wire between the low reference circuit terminal 2 of the B74 MAP sensor and ground.
  4. Install a jumper wire at terminal 3 of the B74 MAP sensor.
  5. Connect a DMM between the jumper wire from terminal 3 of the B74 MAP sensor and ground.
  6. Ignition ON, with the J 23738-A Mityvac or the J 35555 Metal Mityvac , slowly apply vacuum to the sensor while observing the voltage on the DMM. The voltage should vary between 0-5.2V without any spikes or dropouts.
  7. If the voltage reading is erratic, replace the B74 MAP sensor.

Circuit/System Description

The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor has a 5V reference circuit, a low reference circuit, and a signal circuit. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5V to the MAP sensor on the 5V reference circuit, and provides a ground on the low reference circuit. The MAP sensor provides a voltage signal to the ECM on the signal circuit relative to the intake manifold pressure changes.

The sensor used on this engine is a three atmosphere sensor. Pressure in the intake manifold is affected by engine speed, throttle opening, turbocharger boost pressure, intake air temperature (IAT), and barometric pressure (BARO). Under normal operation the greatest pressure that can exist in the intake manifold at ignition ON, engine OFF is equal to the BARO. When the vehicle is operated at wide-open throttle (WOT), the turbocharger can increase the pressure to near 240 kPa. The least manifold pressure occurs when the vehicle is decelerating and can range from 13-48 kPa.

Conditions for Running the DTC

    • The ignition is ON, or the engine is running.
    • The DTCs run continuously within the enabling conditions.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P0107

The ECM detects that the MAP sensor voltage is less than 0.19V for more than 4 seconds continuously, or 50 seconds cumulative.

P0108

The ECM detects that the MAP sensor voltage is greater than 4.80V for more than 4 seconds continuously, or 50 seconds cumulative.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

DTCs P0107 and P0108 are Type B DTCs.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
