Note On Intermittents

Manipulate affected wiring and connectors while observing PCM parameter P.0.2. Apply and release vacuum to MAP sensor vacuum port using a vacuum source. If PCM parameter P.0.2 displays greater than 108 kPa, condition has been induced and cause of intermittent should be repaired. If wiring and connectors are okay, substitute a known good MAP sensor, and retest.
