MAP sensor location.

squartus · 01-05-2017, 05:08 PM

Trying to find the location of the MAP sensor, coming up empty online. New one coming in tommrow, thought I read that its by the brake fluid but not seeing it.

Location or pic either works!

Located under the intake manifold on the backside of the bank 2 rail.

The intake mani will have to come off.

Shit, yea since have ESS manifold on there thats not the 15min job I was hoping for. This puppy crapped out on me 200miles into my new build, learned something new though. Didn't know we had a MAP and not a MAF

I pulled a code for the MAP sensor a few months ago (no cel) so I started researching. Your right though, theres not much in this forum about it.. maybe two or three threads.

I cleared the code and it hasn't returned but I am keeping it suspect. FYI- It happened about 150 miles after I flashed the ESS tune (i had to flash to an emissions tune and back). I thought maybe it was a fluke with the adaptation. Its seen about 500 miles since clearing the code and hasn't returned. You're not so lucky though, huh?

MAP sensor faults will not be adaptation related.

Yea I cleared it, came back after about 150 miles, cleared it came back mile later, then it just stayed constant even on startup. Managed to get home doing 35MPH in super limp mode lol.
