DTC Troubleshooting

DTC P2227: BARO Sensor Circuit Range/ Performance Problem

NOTE:
- Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information.
- If DTC P0107, P0108, P1128, and/or P1129 are stored at the same time as DTC P2227, troubleshoot those DTCs first, then recheck for DTC P2227.
- Before starting this troubleshooting check for poor connections or blockage at the intake air duct and air cleaner.

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and wait 2 seconds.
2. Check the BARO SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the HDS.

Is about 101 kPa (29.9 in.Hg, 760 mmHg), or about 2.9 V at sea level indicated?

YES - Go to step 3.

NO - Go to step 7.

3. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
4. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
5. Test-drive under these conditions:
- Engine coolant temperature (ECT SENSOR) ('04-05 models), Engine coolant temperature (ECT SENSOR 1) ('06-07 models) above 176 °F (80 °C)
- A/T in D position (M/T in 4th gear)
- REL TP SENSOR between 12° and 20° for 3 seconds

6. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P2227 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.

Does the screen indicate FAILED?

YES - Go to step 7.

NO - If the screen indicates PASSED, intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, Go to step 4 and recheck.

7. Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known good ECM/PCM.
8. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
9. Test-drive under these conditions:
- Engine coolant temperature (ECT SENSOR) ('04-05 models), Engine coolant temperature (ECT SENSOR 1) ('06-07 models) above 176 °F (80 °C)
- A/T in D position (M/T in 4th gear)
- REL TP SENSOR between 12° and 20° for 3 seconds

10. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P2227 indicated?

YES - Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the ECM/PCM. If the ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known good ECM/PCM, then Go to step 8. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, Go to step 1.

NO - Go to step 11.

11. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P2227 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.

Does the screen indicate PASSED?

YES - If the ECM/PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, replace the original ECM/PCM. If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs were indicated in step 10, Go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.

NO - If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the ECM/PCM. If the ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known good ECM/PCM, then Go to step 8. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, Go to step 1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, Go to step 8.
