Diagnostic Test

  1. MAP SENSOR VOLTAGE ABOVE 4.92 VOLTS 
    1. Start the engine.
    2. With a scan tool, read the MAP Sensor voltage.

      Is the voltage above 4.92 volts?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  2

      No 

  2. MAP SENSOR

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the MAP Sensor harness connector.
    3. Connect a jumper wire between the (K1) MAP Signal circuit and the (K900) Sensor ground circuit in the Sensor harness connector.
    4. Ignition on, engine not running.
    5. With a scan tool, monitor the MAP Sensor voltage.

      Is the voltage below 1.0 volt with the jumper wire installed?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  3
        NOTE: Remove the jumper wire before continuing.
  3. (K1) MAP SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO BATTERY VOLTAGE

    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the PCM harness connectors.
    3. Ignition on, engine not running.
    4. Measure the voltage on the (K1) MAP Signal circuit in the MAP Sensor harness connector.

      Is the voltage above 5.2 volts?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  4
  4. (K1) MAP SIGNAL CIRCUIT OPEN

    1. Turn the ignition off.
      CAUTION: Do not probe the PCM harness connectors. Probing the PCM harness connectors will damage the PCM terminals resulting in poor terminal to pin connection. Install PCM Pinout Box 8815 to perform diagnosis.
    2. Measure the resistance of the (K1) MAP Signal circuit from the MAP Sensor harness connector to the appropriate terminal of special tool #8815.

      Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  5

      No 

  5. (K1) MAP SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO THE (F855) 5-VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT

    1. Disconnect the C2 PCM Harness connector.
    2. Measure the resistance between the (K1) MAP Signal circuit and the (F855) 5-volt Supply circuit in the MAP Sensor harness connector.

      Is the resistance below 100 ohms?

      Yes 

      No 

      • Go to step  6
  6. (K900) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT OPEN 
    Fig 5: Checking MAP Sensor Ground Circuit

    1. Measure the resistance of the (K900) Sensor ground circuit from the MAP Sensor harness connector to the appropriate terminal of special tool #8815.

      Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

      Yes 

      • Go to step  7

      No 

  7. PCM 
    NOTE: Before continuing, check the PCM harness connector terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Repair as necessary.
    1. Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wire harness and connectors. Pay particular attention to all Power and Ground circuits.

      Were there any problems found?

      Yes 

      No
