Pinpoint Test DN: Pressure And Temperature Sensors: Introduction: Notes
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 31 other vehicles, including the 2015 Lincoln Navigator, 2015 Lincoln MKZ, 2015 Lincoln MKX, 2015 Lincoln MKT, and 2015 Lincoln MKS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- intake air temperature 2 (IAT2) sensor (12A697)
- manifold absolute pressure (MAP)/charge air cooler temperature (CACT) sensor (9F479)
- manifold absolute pressure (MAP)/intake air temperature 2 (IAT2) sensor (9F479)
- turbocharger boost pressure (TCBP)/charge air cooler temperature (CACT) sensor (9F479)
- harness circuits: IAT2, CACT, SIGRTN and VREF
- PCM (12A650)
Voltage values calculated for VREF equals 5 volts. These values can vary by 15% due to sensor and VREF variations.
