Diagnostic Fault Information






Typical Scan Tool Data






Circuit Description

The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor responds to pressure changes in the intake manifold. The pressure changes occur based on the engine load. The engine control module (ECM) supplies 5 V to the MAP sensor on the 5 V reference circuit. The ECM provides a ground on the low reference circuit. The MAP sensor provides a signal to the ECM on the MAP sensor signal circuit which is relative to the pressure changes in the manifold. The ECM detects a low signal voltage at a low MAP, such as during an idle or a deceleration. The ECM detects a high signal voltage at a high MAP, such as the ignition is ON, with the engine OFF, or at a wide open throttle (WOT). The MAP sensor is also used to determine the barometric pressure (BARO).

Conditions for Running the DTC

* DTC P0697 is not set.

* The engine is running.

* This DTC runs continuously within the enabling conditions.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

Circuit/System Verification

1. Ignition ON.

2. Verify that DTC P0641, P0651, P0697, or P06A3 is not set.

If any of the DTCs are set
Refer to DTC P0641, P0651, P0697, or P06A3 (ECM) Powertrain Management (ECM) for further diagnosis.

If none of the DTCs are set

3. Engine idling, verify the scan tool MAP voltage parameter is between 0.3-4.8 V and changes with accelerator pedal input.

If not between 0.3-4.8 V or does not change
Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

If between 0.3-4.8 V and changes

4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed in the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.

5. Verify the DTC does not set.

If the DTC sets
Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

If the DTC does not set

6. All OK.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B74 Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor.

2. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down. Test for less than 2 ohms between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.

If 2 ohms or greater

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.

2. Test for less than 2 ohms in the low reference circuit end to end.

If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

If less than 2 ohms, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.

If less than 2 ohms

3. Ignition ON.

4. Test for 4.8-5.2 V between the 5 V reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.

If less than 4.8 V

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.

2. Test for infinite resistance between the 5 V reference circuit and ground.

If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.

If infinite resistance

3. Test for less than 2 ohms in the 5 V reference circuit end to end.

If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

If less than 2 ohms, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.

Note: If the signal circuit is shorted to a voltage the engine control module or the sensor may be damaged.

If greater than 5.2 V

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.

2. Ignition ON, test for less than 1 V between the 5 V reference circuit and ground.

If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.

If less than 1 V, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.

If between 4.8-5.2 V

5. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter is less than 0.5 V.

If 0.5 V or greater

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K20 Engine Control Module.

2. Ignition ON, test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.

If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.

If less than 1 V, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.
