OPERATION
  • A power voltage of 5 V is applied to the manifold absolute pressure sensor power terminal (terminal No. 3) from the engine-A/T-ECU (terminal No. 97) and earthed to the engine-A/T-ECU (terminal No. 96) from the manifold absolute pressure sensor (terminal No. 2).
  • The sensor signal is inputted to the engine-A/T-ECU (terminal No. 101) from the manifold absolute pressure sensor output terminal (terminal No. 1).
FUNCTION
  • The manifold absolute pressure sensor converts the manifold absolute pressure into a voltage signal and inputs the signal to the engine-A/T-ECU.
  • In response to the signal, the engine-A/T-ECU corrects the fuel injection amount, etc.
TROUBLE JUDGMENT
Check Conditions
  • 2 seconds later after the ignition switch has been in "ON" position or the engine has started up
  • The battery voltage is 8 V or more.
Judgment Criteria
  • The sensor output voltage is 4.5V or more (barometric pressure above 114 kPa or equivalent) for 4 seconds.
or
  • The sensor output voltage is 0.2 V or less (barometric pressure below 53 kPa or equivalent) for 4 seconds.
PROBABLE CAUSE
  • Failed Manifold absolute pressure sensor
  • Open/short circuit in Manifold absolute pressure sensor circuit or loose connector contact
  • Failed engine-A/T-ECU
