Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor
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.
The MAP sensor is located on the intake manifold and measures the intake manifold pressure. The PCM uses this information to determine the air charge and to provide the input for various engine control functions. The MAP sensor may be integrated with an intake air temperature (IAT) sensor.
