P1400
Manifold Differently Pressure Sensor Circuit:
CIRCUIT OPERATION
- A 5-volt voltage is applied on the manifold differential pressure sensor power terminal (terminal 3) from the ECM (terminal 42)
- A voltage proportional to the pressure in the intake manifold plenum is sent from the manifold differential pressure sensor output terminal (terminal 1) to the ECM (terminal 92)
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
- The manifold differential pressure sensor outputs a voltage which corresponds to the negative pressure in the intake manifold.
- The ECM

- Open or shorted manifold differential pressure sensor circuit, or loose connector.
- ECM failed.
- PCM failed.
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)
MB991348: Test Harness Set
CAUTION: To prevent damage to scan tool MB991502, always turn the ignition switch to "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool MB991502.
STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991502, check data list item 95: Manifold Differential Pressure Sensor.
1. Connect scan tool MB991502 to the data link connector.
2. Start the engine and run at idle.
3. Set scan tool MB991502 to the data reading mode for item 95, Manifold Differential Pressure Sensor.
- While engine is idling, pressure should be between 22.6 and 36.0 kPa.
If within specifications, this malfunction is intermittent.
Refer to How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope With Intermittent Malfunction.
If not within specifications, go to Step 2.
STEP 2. Check the circuit at manifold differential pressure sensor connector B-04.
1. Disconnect connector B-04 and measure at the harness side.
2. Turn the ignition switch to "ON" position.
3. Measure the voltage between terminal 3 and ground.
- Voltage should be between 4.8 and 5.2 volts.
4. Turn the ignition switch to "LOCK" (OFF) position.
5. Check for the continuity between terminal 2 and ground.
- Should be less than 2 ohms .
If all checks above meet the specifications, go to Step 3. If any check above does not meet the specifications, go to Step 5.
STEP 3. Check the output line at manifold differential pressure sensor connector B-04.
1. Disconnect connector B-04 and connect test harness special tool, MB991348, in between.
2. Start the engine and run at idle.
3. Measure voltage between terminal 1 and ground.
Standard value: 0.8 - 2.4 V
4. Turn the ignition switch to "LOCK" (OFF) position.
If within specifications, go to Step 4.
If not within specifications, replace the manifold differential pressure sensor. Then go to Step 7.
STEP 4. Check harness connector B-04 at the manifold differential pressure sensor for damage.
If harness connector B-04 is in good condition, replace the manifold differential pressure sensor. Then go to Step 5.
If harness connector B-04 is damaged, repair or replace it.
Refer to Harness Connector Inspection. Then go to Step 7.
STEP 5. Check harness connector C-58, C-62 at the ECM
If harness connector C-58, C-62
If harness connector C-58, C-62
STEP 6. Check the harness wires between manifold differential pressure sensor connector B-04 and ECM connector C-58, C-62
If the wires between manifold differential pressure sensor connector B-04 and ECM connector C-58, C-62
If the wires between manifold differential pressure sensor connector B-04 and ECM connector C-58, C-62
STEP 7. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
1. Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to Procedure 6 - Other Monitor.
2. Read the diagnostic trouble code, and confirm that diagnostic trouble code P1400 does not reset.
