P1106

Circuit Description

The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor is a sensor that changes resistance based upon manifold vacuum. The PCM provides a 5 volt reference and ground. The MAP sensor signal varies between ground and 5 volts as manifold vacuum varies. As MAP decreases, voltage decreases (low engine load, high vacuum). As MAP increases, voltage increases (high engine load, low vacuum). The PCM uses the MAP sensor values as an indicator of engine load. DTC P1106 sets when the PCM detects a MAP sensor signal that is too high.

Conditions for Running the DTC

^ DTCs P0107, P0108, P0122 and P0123 not set.
^ Engine running.
^ Throttle angle 20.5 degrees or less.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The MAP sensor reading has been 5.06 volts or greater too long.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

^ The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will not illuminate.
^ No message will be displayed.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

^ A History DTC will clear after forty consecutive warm-up cycles with no failures of any non-emission related diagnostic test.
^ A Last Test Failed (current) DTC will clear when the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
^ Use a scan tool to clear DTCs.
^ Interrupting PCM battery voltage may or may not clear DTCs. This practice is not recommended.

Diagnostic Aids

DTC P1106 may set due to random engine backfires or mechanical problems. Check for possible mechanical causes of high manifold pressure. If no mechanical causes are found, perform Powertrain Ground Check table. Component Tests and General Diagnostics

2. If DTC P0108 is also set, diagnose it first because it may help to diagnose an intermittent MAP sensor.
