CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor measures the change in the intake manifold pressure. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) provides a 5 volt reference voltage to the MAP sensor. The MAP sensor changes the reference voltage in response to changes in engine load and in engine speed. The PCM monitors the MAP sensor voltage. A low voltage reading at the PCM indicates low manifold pressure. A high voltage reading at the PCM indicates high manifold pressure.
CONDITION FOR RUNNING THE DTC
^ The engine is running.
^ The engine is in a closed loop.
^ The engine speed is steady.
CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
^ A low voltage input at the PCM that indicates the manifold absolute pressure is 5 kPa or less.
^ The above condition is met for at least 0.5 seconds.
ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
^ The PCM illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL).
^ The PCM records the operating conditions at the time that the diagnostic fails. The Freeze Frame buffer stores this information.
^ The PCM enters the Fail-Safe Function and depends on the TP sensor and on engine speed inputs while stopping EGR control and EVAP purge control.
CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
^ The MIL turns OFF after three consecutive passing trips without a fault present.
^ A History DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles without a fault.
^ Use the Clear DTC Information function on the scan tool, or disconnect the PCM battery feed in order to clear the DTC.
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
Check for any of the following conditions:
^ Check for a vacuum hose that is blocked or pinched to the MAP sensor.
^ Check the MAP filter for damage, for blockage, for water contamination, or for vapor contamination.
^ If a DTC P0107 and P0122 are set together, the cause could be an open or a short to ground.
^ A faulty electrical connection to the PCM.
A fault in the MAP sensor electrical circuit may cause an intermittent malfunction. Inspect the wiring harness and the components for any of the following conditions:
^ Backed out terminals
^ Incorrect mating of terminals
^ Broken electrical connector locks
^ Incorrectly formed terminals or damaged terminals
^ Faulty terminal-to-wire connections
^ Physical damage to the wiring harness
^ A broken wire inside the insulation
^ Corrosion of electrical connections, of splices, or of terminals
If a DTC P0107 cannot be duplicated, the Freeze Frame data can be useful in determining vehicle operating conditions when the DTC was set.
Use the MAP Conversion table in order to view the relationship between manifold pressure (vacuum), MAP sensor kPa and MAP sensor circuit voltage as displayed on the scan tool.
TEST DESCRIPTION
The numbers below refer to the step numbers in the Diagnostic Table.
1. The Powertrain OBD system check prompts the technician to complete some basic checks and store the Freeze Frame data on the scan tool if applicable. This creates an electronic copy of the data taken when the fault occurred. The information is then stored in the scan tool for later reference.
2. This step determines that the fault is present.
4. This step checks for the correct reference circuit voltage. The scan tool MAP sensor voltage display will indicate 6.99 volts with the MAP sensor disconnected (open in the sensor input circuit). This is caused by the scan tool software and should be considered normal. Ignore the scan tool voltage and use the DMM for all voltage checks when diagnosing a DTC P0107.
