Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Saturn Ion 3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  2. Disconnect the MAP sensor.
  3. Connect a test lamp between the MAP sensor 5-volt reference circuit and a good ground.
  4. Measure for a proper range of 4.8-5.2 volts between the MAP sensor 5-volt reference circuit and a good ground.
    • If the voltage is less than the specified range, then test the circuit for a high resistance or a faulty ECM.
    • If the voltage is more than the specified range, then test the circuit for a short to voltage or a faulty ECM.
  5. With the MAP sensor still disconnected, use the scan tool to observe the MAP Sensor parameter for the proper value of less than 12 kPa.
    • If the MAP Sensor parameter is more than 12 kPa, then test the MAP sensor signal circuit for a short to voltage or a faulty ECM.
  6. Connect a jumper wire between the MAP sensor 5-volt reference circuit and the MAP sensor signal circuit.
  7. Use the scan tool to observe the MAP Sensor parameter for the proper value of more than 103 kPa.
    • If the MAP Sensor parameter is less than 103 kPa, then test the MAP sensor signal circuit for a high resistance or a faulty ECM.
  8. Turn OFF the ignition, and all electrical accessories. Allow sufficient time for the control module to power down before taking a resistance measurement.
  9. Measure for a proper value of less than 5 ohms of resistance between the low reference circuit of the MAP sensor and a good ground.
    • If the resistance is more than 5 ohms, then test the circuit for a high resistance or a faulty ECM.
  10. If the MAP sensor circuits test normal, then replace the MAP sensor.
