Circuit Description
The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor responds to changes in intake manifold pressure, vacuum. The MAP sensor signal voltage to the powertrain control module (PCM) varies from less than 2 volts at idle, to more than 4 volts with the key ON and the engine OFF or at wide-open throttle. The MAP sensor is used to update the barometric pressure (BARO) reading, as an enabling factor for other diagnostics, and to determine any manifold pressure changes while the EGR flow test diagnostic is being run. Refer to DTC P0401 Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Flow Insufficient . The PCM monitors the MAP signals for voltages outside the normal range of the MAP sensor. If the PCM detects a MAP signal voltage that is intermittently high, DTC P1106 will set.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | No TP sensor DTCs are present. |
| • | The system voltage is more than 9.0 volts. |
| • | The engine has been running for a length of time that is determined by startup engine coolant temperature. The length of time ranges from 2 minutes at less than -30°C (-22°F) to 1.0 second at more than 30°C (86°F). |
| • | The throttle position is less than 2 percent if the engine speed is less than 3000 RPM. |
| • | The throttle position is less than 30 percent if the engine speed is more than 3000 RPM. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The MAP sensor intermittently indicates a voltage of more than 4.3 volts.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The PCM stores conditions which were present when the DTC set as Failure Records only. This information will not be stored as Freeze Frame Records.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
| • | The DTC becomes history when the conditions for setting the DTC are no longer present. |
| • | The history DTC clears after 40 malfunction free warm-up cycles. |
| • | The PCM receives a clear code command from the scan tool. |
Diagnostic Aids
Inspect for the following conditions:
Many situations may lead to an intermittent condition. Perform each inspection or test as directed.
Important: : Remove any debris from the connector surfaces before servicing a component. Inspect the connector gaskets when diagnosing or replacing a component. Ensure that the gaskets are installed correctly. The gaskets prevent contaminate intrusion.
| • | Loose terminal connection |
| - | Use a corresponding mating terminal to test for proper tension. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections , and to Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems for diagnosis and repair. |
| - | Inspect the harness connectors for backed out terminals, improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and faulty terminal to wire connection. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections , and to Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems for diagnosis and repair. |
| • | Damaged harness--Inspect the wiring harness for damage. If the harness inspection does not reveal a problem, observe the display on the scan tool while moving connectors and wiring harnesses related to the sensor. A change in the scan tool display may indicate the location of the fault. Refer to Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems for diagnosis and repair. |
| • | Inspect the powertrain control module (PCM) and the engine grounds for clean and secure connections. Refer to Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems for diagnosis and repair. |
If the condition is determined to be intermittent, reviewing the Snapshot or Freeze Frame/Failure Records may be useful in determining when the DTC or condition was identified.
