Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
- Disconnect the MAP sensor.
- Connect a test lamp between the MAP sensor 5-volt reference circuit and a good ground.
- Measure for a proper range of 4.8-5.2 volts between the MAP sensor 5-volt reference circuit and a good ground.
- If the voltage is less than the specified range, then test the circuit for an open or high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the PCM.
- If the voltage is more than the specified range, then test the circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the PCM.
- With the MAP sensor still disconnected, use the scan tool to observe the MAP Sensor parameter for the proper value of less than 12 kPa.
- If the MAP Sensor parameter is more than 12 kPa, then test the MAP sensor signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the PCM.
- Connect a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the MAP sensor 5-volt reference circuit and the MAP sensor signal circuit.
- Use the scan tool to observe the MAP Sensor parameter for the proper value of more than 103 kPa.
- If the MAP Sensor parameter is less than 103 kPa, then test the MAP sensor signal circuit for high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the PCM.
- Turn OFF the ignition, and all electrical accessories. Allow sufficient time for the control module to power down before taking a resistance measurement.
- Measure for a proper value of less than 10 ohms of resistance between the low reference circuit of the MAP sensor and a good ground.
- If the resistance is more than 10 ohms, then test the circuit for a high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the PCM.
- If the MAP sensor circuits test normal, then replace the MAP sensor.
IMPORTANT:
Certain resistances will not be detectable if a test lamp is not connected to provide a circuit load.
