Circuit/System Testing

NOTE:

All electrical components and accessories must be turned OFF and allowed to power down.

  1. Verify the integrity of the air induction system by inspecting for the following conditions:
    • Any damaged components
    • Loose or improper installation
    • Improperly routed vacuum hoses
    • Any vacuum leaks
    • Any type of restriction
    • MAP sensor seal that is missing or damaged
  2. Ignition OFF, and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B74 MAP sensor. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
  3. Test for less than 5 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
    • If greater than the specified value, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  4. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the 5V reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If less than the specified range, test the 5V reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
    • If greater than the specified range, test the 5V reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  5. Verify the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter is less than 104 kPa (15.1 psi).
    • If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 3 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  6. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 3 and the 5V reference circuit terminal 1. Verify the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter is greater than 103 kPa (14.9 psi).
    • If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
  7. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the MAP sensor.
