SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
This system provides the absolute pressure sensor with either ambient barometric pressure or intake manifold pressure for monitoring.
The MAP/BARO switch solenoid valve switches between two passages (one is from the air duct, the other is from the intake manifold) by ON-OFF operation. When the MAP/BARO switch solenoid valve is activated ON or OFF by the ECM, either ambient barometric pressure or intake manifold pressure is applied to the absolute pressure sensor.
The solenoid valve is almost always OFF under normal conditions.






COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
The MAP/BARO switch solenoid valve switches between ambient barometric pressure and intake manifold pressure according to the voltage signal sent from the ECM. When the MAP/BARO switch solenoid valve is supplied with a voltage by the ECM, it turns "ON" so that the MAP/BARO switch solenoid valve monitors the ambient barometric pressure. When the MAP/BARO switch solenoid valve is not supplied the voltage, it goes "OFF" and the sensor monitors the intake manifold pressure.

ON BOARD DIAGNOSIS LOGIC



DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

NOTE: If "DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE" has been previously conducted, always turn ignition switch "OFF" and wait at least 5 seconds before conducting the next test.


TESTING CONDITION:
Before performing the following procedure, confirm that battery voltage is more than 11V.



With Generic Scan Tool
1) Start engine and let it idle.
2) Wait at least 10 seconds.
3) Select "MODE 7" with GST.

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE


COMPONENT INSPECTION
MAP/BARO switch solenoid valve






Without TOOLS
1. Turn ignition switch "OFF" and remove MAP/BARO switch solenoid valve.
2. Check air passage continuity.
3. Check the time required for the solenoid valve to switch. It should be less than 1 second.






4. If NG, replace solenoid valve.
5. If OK, check "Absolute pressure sensor". Refer to "COMPONENT INSPECTION".
