With Supercharger/RPO L32

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The MAP sensor responds to changes in intake manifold pressure which gives an indication of the engine load. The MAP sensor wiring includes a 5-volt reference circuit, a low reference circuit, and a signal circuit. The PCM supplies 5 volts to the MAP sensor on the 5-volt reference circuit and provides a ground on the low reference circuit. The MAP sensor provides a signal to the PCM on the MAP sensor signal circuit which is relative to the pressure changes in the manifold. With low MAP such as during idle or deceleration, the PCM should detect a low MAP sensor signal voltage. With high MAP such as WOT, the PCM should detect a high MAP sensor signal voltage. This MAP sensor will indicate pressure between 8-208 kPa. The PCM monitors the MAP sensor signal for voltage outside of the normal range. If the PCM detects a MAP sensor signal voltage that is intermittently high, DTC P1106 sets.
