P0107-MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW

Special Tools:






For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.





Theory of Operation

The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor is a transducer that varies resistance according to changes in altitude and atmospheric conditions. The MAP Sensor reading gives the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) an indication of the current air pressure within the Intake Manifold. The PCM uses this information to help calculate fuel delivery. The MAP Sensor functions as a typical three wire sensor. The PCM supplies 5 volts to the MAP Sensor on a 5 volt reference circuit and provides a ground on a low reference circuit. The MAP Sensor provides a voltage signal to the PCM on a signal circuit relative to the pressure changes. The PCM receives the Barometric Pressure (BARO) Sensor reading from the MAP Sensor with the ignition on, before the engine is cranking or running.

- When Monitored:
With the ignition on and battery voltage greater than 10.4 volts.

- Set Condition:
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) detects that the MAP Sensor input voltage is below the minimum acceptable threshold. One trip fault. If the vehicle is equipped with the stop/start feature, the system will be disabled when this DTC is active.





Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. PCM Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure.

Diagnostic Test

1. ACTIVE DTC
1. Start the engine and allow it to idle.

WARNING:
When the engine is operating, do not stand in direct line with the fan. Do not put your hands near the pulleys, belts or fan. Do not wear loose clothing. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.

2. With the scan tool, select View DTCs.

Is the status Active for this DTC?

Yes

- Go To 2

No

- Perform the INTERMITTENT DTC diagnostic procedure. PCM Intermittent Condition Test.

2. CHECK THE (F856) 5-VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT VOLTAGE




1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the MAP Sensor harness connector.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. Measure the voltage of the (F856) 5-Volt Supply circuit in the MAP Sensor harness connector.
