Diagnostic Fault Information






Typical Scan Tool Data






Circuit Description

The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor measures the pressure inside the intake manifold. Pressure in the intake manifold is affected by engine speed, throttle opening, air temperature, and barometric pressure (BARO). A diaphragm within the MAP sensor is displaced by the pressure changes that occur from the varying load and operating conditions of the engine. The sensor translates this action into electrical resistance. The MAP sensor wiring includes 3 circuits. The engine control module (ECM) supplies a regulated 5 V to the sensor on a 5 V reference circuit. The ECM supplies a ground on a low reference circuit. The MAP sensor provides a signal voltage to the ECM, relative to the pressure changes, on the MAP sensor signal circuit. The ECM converts the signal voltage input to a pressure value.

Under normal operation the highest pressure that can exist in the intake manifold is equal to BARO. This occurs when the vehicle is operated at wide-open throttle (WOT) or when the ignition is on while the engine is off. Under these conditions, the ECM uses the MAP sensor to determine the current BARO. The lowest manifold pressures occur when the vehicle is idling or decelerating. MAP can range from 10 kPa, when pressures are low, to as much as 104 kPa when pressures are high, depending on the BARO. The ECM monitors the MAP sensor signal for pressure outside of the normal range.

Diagnostic Aids

Verify the integrity of the MAP sensor system by inspecting for the following conditions:

* Intake manifold vacuum leaks
* Any damage to the MAP sensor housing
* Any damage to the MAP sensor seal
* A loose or improperly installed MAP sensor
* A restriction in the vacuum source of the MAP sensor

Circuit/System Verification

1. Ignition OFF, open the hood to disable the Auto-Stop function. Refer to Hybrid Modes of Operation Description Hybrid Modes of Operation Description.
2. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool hood position parameter displays Open.

If the hood position does not display Open, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle for DTC P254F.

3. Engine running, observe the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter. The reading should be between 32-40 kPa.
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

Note: All electrical components and accessories must be turned OFF and allowed to power down.

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the MAP sensor.
2. Ignition OFF for 90 s, test for less than 5 ohm between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.

If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.

3. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the 5 V reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.

If less than the specified range, test the 5 V reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
If greater than the specified range, test the 5 V reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.

4. Verify the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter is less than 12 kPa.

If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 3 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.

5. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 3 and the 5 V reference circuit terminal 1. Verify the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter is greater than 103 kPa.

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 ECM.

6. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the 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.

1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF, and remove the MAP sensor.
2. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the 5 V reference circuit terminal 1 and the corresponding terminal of the MAP sensor.
3. Install a jumper wire between the low reference circuit terminal 2 of the MAP sensor and ground.
4. Install a jumper wire to the MAP sensor signal circuit terminal 3.
5. Connect a DMM between the jumper wire from the MAP sensor signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.
6. Install the J-35555 to the MAP sensor vacuum port. Slowly apply vacuum to the sensor while observing the voltage on the DMM. The voltage should vary between 0-5.2 V without any spikes or dropouts.

If the voltage is not within the specified range or is erratic, replace the MAP sensor.
