The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor responds to pressure changes in the intake manifold. The pressure changes occur based on the engine load. The MAP sensor has the following circuits:
• | 5-volt reference circuit |
• | Low reference circuit |
• | MAP sensor signal circuit |
The powertrain control module (PCM) supplies 5 volts to the MAP sensor on the 5-volt reference circuit. The PCM also provides a ground on the low reference circuit. The MAP sensor provides a signal to the PCM on the MAP sensor signal circuit which is relative to the pressure changes in the manifold. The PCM should detect a low signal voltage at a low MAP, such as during an idle or a deceleration. The PCM should detect a high signal voltage at a high MAP, such as the ignition is ON, with the engine OFF, or at a wide open throttle (WOT). The MAP sensor is also used in order to determine the barometric pressure (BARO). This occurs when the ignition switch is turned ON, with the engine OFF. The BARO reading may also be updated whenever the engine is operated at WOT. The PCM monitors the MAP sensor signal for voltage outside of the normal range.
If the PCM detects a MAP sensor signal voltage that is excessively low, DTC P0107 sets.
• | DTCs P0122 or P0123 are not set. |
• | The engine speed is less than 1,000 RPM. |
OR |
• | The engine speed is more than 1,000 RPM, the throttle position (TP) is more than 28 percent, and the pedal position is more than 1.2 percent |
The PCM detects that the MAP sensor voltage is less than 0.2 volt for more than 6 seconds.
• | The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails. |
• | The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The control module stores this information in the Freeze Frame/Failure Records. |
• | The PCM will substitute a default MAP value to control the fuel delivery. the scan tool will not show the defaulted value. |
• | The engine will operate in Open Loop when the vehicle is traveling under 8 km/h (5 mph). |
• | The engine will operate in Closed Loop when the vehicle is traveling over 8 km/h (5 mph). |
• | The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail. |
• | A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes. |
• | A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related diagnostic. |
• | Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool. |
