P0109-MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT INTERMITTENT
For a complete wiring diagram Consult Diagrams/Electrical
- When Monitored:
With the ignition on and battery voltage greater than 10.4 volts.
- Set Condition:
The PCM detects an intermittent fault in the MAP Sensor circuit.
Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding.Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview
Diagnostic Test
1. DTC IS ACTIVE
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, select View DTCs and review the DTC environmental information.
Is the good trip counter greater than 0?
Yes
- The DTC is not active at this time. Refer to the *CHECKING FOR AN INTERMITTENT DTC Diagnostic Procedure.Checking for an Intermittent DTC
No
- Go to 2
2. MAP SENSOR WIRING AND CONNECTOR INSPECTION
Turn the ignition off.
Verify that the harness connector is properly connected to the MAP Sensor.
Disconnect the MAP Sensor connector.
Inspect the wiring and terminals for any condition that would result in a poor connection.
Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.
Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.
Connect the MAP Sensor connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Monitor the scan tool data relative to this circuit and wiggle test the wiring and connectors.
Look for the data to change or for a DTC to set during the wiggle test.
Were any problems found?
Yes
- Repair as necessary.
- Perform the PCM Verification Test.PCM Verification Test
No
- Go to 3
3. MAP SENSOR VOLTAGE
Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the MAP Sensor connector.
Connect a jumper wire between the (F855) 5 Volt Supply circuit and the (K1) MAP Signal circuit in the MAP Sensor harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, read the MAP Sensor input voltage.
NOTE: The sensor voltage should be approximately 5.0 volts (plus or minus.1 volt) with the jumper wire in place.
Is the voltage on the scan tool displayed as described above?
Yes
- Go to 4
No
- Go to 5
4. MAP SENSOR
Turn the ignition off.
Connect a jumper wire between the (K900) Sensor Ground circuit and the (K1) MAP Signal circuit in the MAP Sensor harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, read the MAP Sensor input voltage.
NOTE: The sensor voltage should be approximately 0.0 volts (plus or minus.1 volt) with the jumper wire in place.
Is the voltage on the scan tool displayed as described above?
Yes
- Replace the MAP Sensor.
- Perform the PCM Verification Test.PCM Verification Test
No
- Go to 5
5. (F855) 5 VOLT SUPPLY CIRCUIT HIGH RESISTANCE
Turn the ignition off.
Connect the MAP Sensor harness connector.
Using a voltmeter, perform a voltage drop test by backprobing the (F855) 5 Volt Supply circuit at the MAP Sensor and Powertrain Control Module (PCM) harness connectors. Make sure the voltmeter leads are connected so that positive polarity is displayed on the voltmeter.
WARNING: When the engine is operating, do not stand in direct line with the fan. Do not put your hands near the pulleys, belts, or fan. Do not wear loose fitting clothing. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal or fatal injury.
Start the engine.
Is the voltage below 0.5 volts?
Yes
- Go to 6
No
- Repair the (F855) 5 Volt Supply circuit for high resistance.
- Perform the PCM Verification Test.PCM Verification Test
6. (K1) MAP SIGNAL CIRCUIT HIGH RESISTANCE
Turn the ignition off.
Using a voltmeter, perform a voltage drop test by backprobing the (K1) MAP Signal circuit at the MAP Sensor and Powertrain Control Module (PCM) harness connectors. Make sure the voltmeter leads are connected so that positive polarity is displayed on the voltmeter.
WARNING: When the engine is operating, do not stand in direct line with the fan. Do not put your hands near the pulleys, belts, or fan. Do not wear loose fitting clothing. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal or fatal injury.
Start the engine.
Is the voltage below 0.5 volts?
Yes
- Go to 7
No
- Repair the (K1) MAP Signal circuit for high resistance.
- Perform the PCM Verification Test.PCM Verification Test
7. (K900) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT HIGH RESISTANCE
Turn the ignition off.
Using a voltmeter, perform a voltage drop test by backprobing the (K900) Sensor Ground circuit at the MAP Sensor and Powertrain Control Module (PCM) harness connectors. Make sure the voltmeter leads are connected so that positive polarity is displayed on the voltmeter.
WARNING: When the engine is operating, do not stand in direct line with the fan. Do not put your hands near the pulleys, belts, or fan. Do not wear loose fitting clothing. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal or fatal injury.
Start the engine.
Is the voltage below 0.5 volts?
Yes

No
- Repair the (K900) Sensor Ground circuit for high resistance.
- Perform the PCM Verification Test.PCM Verification Test
8. POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the MAP Sensor and the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.
Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.
Monitor the scan tool data relative to this circuit and wiggle test the wiring and connectors.
Look for the data to change or for a DTC to set during the wiggle test.
