DTC Advanced Diagnostics: P2227 (2.0L Engine) (2024 2025)
DTC P2227 : Barometric Pressure (BARO) Sensor Circuit Out of Range High
General Description
The barometric pressure (BARO) sensor is built into the powertrain control module (PCM), and it monitors atmospheric pressure. The monitoring function checks the signal of the BARO sensor for implausible values by means of diverse criteria. If the difference between measured ambient pressure and the reference pressure is a specified value, the PCM detects a malfunction and stores a DTC.

- PCM internal circuit failure
Diagnosis Details
Conditions for setting the DTC
When a malfunction is detected, the MIL comes on and a Pending DTC, a Confirmed DTC, the freeze data, and the on-board snapshot are stored in the PCM memory.
Conditions for clearing the DTC
The MIL is cleared if the malfunction does not return in three consecutive trips in which the diagnostic runs. The MIL, the Pending DTC, the Confirmed DTC, the freeze data, and the on-board snapshot can be cleared with the scan tool clear command.
