DTC P1109: Barometric Pressure (BARO) Sensor Circuit Out of Range High







General Description
The barometric pressure (BARO) sensor is built into the engine control module (ECM) and monitors atmospheric pressure. The ECM estimates appropriate intake airflow from the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor output voltage and BARO sensor output voltage. When BARO sensor output voltage is outside of the normal specified range, a malfunction is detected and a DTC is stored.

Enable Conditions







Malfunction Threshold
The BARO sensor output voltage is between 3.59 V to 4.49 V for at least 2 seconds.

Diagnosis Details

Conditions for illuminating the MIL
When a malfunction is detected, the MIL comes on and the DTC and the freeze frame data are stored in the ECM memory.

Conditions for clearing the MIL
The MIL will be cleared if the malfunction does not recur during three consecutive trips in which the diagnostic runs. The MIL, the DTC, and the freeze frame data can be cleared by using the scan tool Clear command or by disconnecting the battery.
