The barometric pressure (BARO) sensor is integrated within the engine control module (ECM). The BARO sensor responds to changes in altitude and atmospheric conditions. The BARO sensor provides the ECM an indication of barometric pressure. The BARO sensor provides a voltage signal to the ECM relative to the atmospheric pressure changes. The ECM monitors the BARO sensor signal for a voltage outside of the normal range.
