P1107

Diagnostic Chart:




Schematic:




CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor responds to changes in the intake manifold pressure, or vacuum. The MAP sensor signal voltage to the PCM varies from below 2 volts at idle when the vacuum is high, to above 4 volts with the ignition ON and the engine not running, or at wide-open throttle (WOT), when the vacuum is low.

The MAP sensor is used to determine manifold pressure changes while the linear EGR flow test diagnostic is being run, to determine barometric pressure (BARO), and to determine engine vacuum level for some other diagnostics. Refer to DTC P0401 Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Flow Insufficient. The PCM monitors the MAP signal for voltages outside the normal range of the MAP sensor. If the PCM detects a MAP signal voltage that is intermittently low, DTC P1107 will set.

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
^ No TP sensor DTCs are present.
^ The ignition is ON.
^ Throttle angle is steadily above 10 percent if the engine speed is more than 1000 RPM.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
^ The MAP sensor intermittently indicates a manifold absolute pressure below 0.1 volt.
^ The above conditions are present for over 10 seconds.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
^ The PCM does not illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL).
^ The PCM stores the conditions that were present when the DTC set as Fail Records data only. This information is not be stored as Freeze Frame data.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
^ A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles have occurred without a malfunction.
^ DTC can be cleared by using the scan tool Clear Info function or by disconnecting the PCM battery feed.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
Check for the following conditions:
^ The map sensor - Monitor the MAP sensor using the scan tool. If the MAP sensor does not respond to throttle changes, check the 3X circuits from the ignition control module to the PCM.
If the 3X signal is lost the PCM will only update the MAP sensor reading once per key cycle, when the engine is first started.
Depending on whether the MAP sensor voltage is high or low when the engine is started, a high or low voltage MAP sensor DTC will set.
^ A faulty connection at the PCM - Inspect harness connectors for backed out terminals, improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and poor terminal to wire connections. Use a corresponding mating terminal to test for correct terminal tension.
^ A damaged harness - Inspect the wiring harness for damage. If the harness appears to be OK, observe the MAP display on the scan tool while moving the related connectors and wiring harnesses. A change in the display will indicate the location of the fault.

Reviewing the Fail Records vehicle mileage since the diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often the condition occurs that caused the DTC to set. This may assist in diagnosing the condition.
