Skewed Sensor Test
- Using the following steps and referencing the table below will determine if the MAP sensor is skewed.
- Ignition ON, engine OFF, observe the MAP sensor scan tool parameter.
- Use the observed MAP Sensor Scan Tool parameter that is closest to a value that is indicated in the first column.
THEN
- Using the J-23738-A or the J-35555 to apply 5 in Hg of vacuum to the MAP sensor, the parameter in the first column should decrease by 17 kPa. The acceptable range is indicated in the second column.
- Using the J-23738-A or the J-35555 to apply 10 in Hg of vacuum to the MAP sensor, the parameter in the first column should decrease by 34 kPa. The acceptable range is indicated in the third column.
- Substract the third MAP sensor reading from the first MAP sensor reading. Verify that the vacuum decrease is within 1 in Hg (4 kPa) of the applied vacuum.
- If the vacuum decrease is not within the specified range, replace the MAP sensor.
