Mass Air Pressure (MAP) Sensor
A single MAP sensor is located in the intake manifold and is secured with two screws. The sensor provides a voltage signal to the ECM relative to the intake manifold pressure.
The MAP sensor has a three pin connector which is connected to the ECM and provides a 5V reference voltage from the ECM, a signal input to the ECM and a ground connection.
The MAP sensor uses a diaphragm transducer to measure the air pressure which allows the ECM to detect quick pressure changes in the intake manifold after the electric throttle. The signal is used in conjunction with the MAF sensor signal to calculate the injection period.
The ECM monitors the engine MAP sensor for faults and can store fault related DTC 's. These can be retrieved using a Jaguar approved diagnostic system. If the sensor fails, the ECM uses the MAF sensor signal value as a substitute.
