Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0108 MAP Sensor Circuit High Voltage
060R200051
Circuit Description
The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor responds
to changes in intake manifold pressure (vacuum). The
MAP sensor signal voltage to the powertrain control
module (PCM) varies from below 2 volts at idle (high
vacuum) to above 4 volts with the key ªONº, engine not
running or at wide-open throttle (low vacuum).
The MAP sensor is used to determine manifold pressure
changes while the linear EGR flow test diagnostic is being
run (refer to
DTC P0401), to determine engine vacuum
level for some other diagnostics and to determine
barometric pressure (BARO). The PCM monitors the
MAP signals for voltages outside the normal range of the
MAP sensor. If the PCM detects a MAP signal voltage
that is excessively high, DTC P0108 will be set.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
No TP sensor DTCs present.
Engine is running for more than 10 seconds.
Throttle position is below 3% if engine speed is below
1000 RPM.
Throttle position is below 10% if engine speed is above
1000 RPM.
The MAP sensor indicates an intermittent manifold
absolute pressure above 80 kPa for a total of
approximately 10 seconds over a 16-second period.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The PCM will ON the MIL after second trip with
detected fault.
The PCM will default to a BARO value of 79.3 kPa.
The PCM will store conditions which were present
when the DTC was set as Freeze Frame and in the
Failure Records data.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
The PCM will turn the MIL ªOFFº on the third
consecutive trip cycle during which the diagnostic has
been run and the fault condition is no longer present.
A history DTC P0108 will clear after 40 consecutive
warm-up cycles have occurred without a fault.
DTC P0108 can be cleared by using the Tech 2 ªClear
Infoº function or by disconnecting the PCM battery
feed.
Diagnostic Aids
Check for the following conditions:
The MAP sensor shares a 5 Volt reference with the
Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor (Vapor Pressure Sensor).
If these codes are also set, it could indicate a problem
with the 5 Volt reference circuit.
The MAP sensor shares a ground with the Fuel Tank
Pressure Sensor, the ECT sensor, and the
Transmission Fluid Temperature sensor.

Circuit Description
To provide the best possible combination of driveability,
fuel economy, and emission control, a ªclosed loopº
air/fuel metering system is used. While in ªclosed loopº,
the powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the Bank 1
HO2S 1 and Bank 2 HO2S 1 signals and adjusts fuel
delivery based upon the HO2S signal voltages. A change
made to fuel delivery will be indicated by the long and
short term fuel trim values which can be monitored with a

signals are indicating a lean condition the PCM will add
fuel, resulting in fuel trim values above 0%. If a rich

delivered. If an excessively lean condition is detected on
Bank 1, the PCM will set DTC P0171.

when the DTC was set as Freeze Frame and in the
Failure Records data.

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0401 EGR Flow Insufficient
060R200050
Circuit Description
The powertrain control module (PCM) tests the exhaust
gas recirculation (EGR) system during deceleration by
momentarily commanding the EGR valve to open while
monitoring the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
signal. When the EGR valve is opened, the PCM
monitors the change in MAP input signal. The PCM
compares the MAP change to a RPM vs. BARO table.
When the PCM interprets the change in MAP to be out of
limits, the PCM will set DTC P0401. The number of test
samples required to accomplish this may vary according
to the severity of the detected flow error.
Normally, the PCM will only allow one EGR flow test
sample to be taken during an ignition cycle. To aid in
verifying a repair, the PCM allows twelve test samples
during the first ignition cycle following a Tech 2 ªClear Infoº
or a battery disconnect. Between nine and twelve
samples should be sufficient for the PCM to determine
adequate EGR flow and pass the EGR test.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
No TP sensor, vehicle speed sensor (VSS), MAP
sensor, IAT sensor, IAC, EGR Pintle Position sensor,
ECT sensor, misfire, or automatic transmission DTCs
set.
Engine coolant temperature is greater than 60C
(140F).
Ignition voltage between 11.5 and 16 volts.
Vehicle speed is greater than 24 km/h (15 mph).A/C clutch status is unchanged.

MAP is steady, changing less than 2 kPa.
Engine speed is between 1100 RPM and 2000 RPM
(M/T).
MAP between 10 kPa and 40 kPa.
Engine speed is between 900 RPM and 1500 rpm
(A/T).
The test will be aborted if the vehicle speed changes
by more than 16 km/h (10 mph), engine speed
changes by more than 100 RPM or the EGR is
opened less than 95% of commanded position.
The PCM will only run the EGR test during a closed
throttle condition.
The PCM will only run the EGR test at vehicle speeds
above 24 km/h (15 mph).
Several deceleration cycles will be necessary to run a
sufficient number of EGR flow tests.

DTC P0401), to determine engine vacuum
level for some other diagnostics and to determine
barometric pressure (BARO). The PCM compares the
MAP sensor signal to a calculated MAP based on throttle
position and various engine load factors. If the PCM
detects a MAP signal that is intermittently above the
calculated value, DTC P1106 will set.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
No TP sensor DTCs are present.
Engine is running for at least 10 seconds.
Throttle angle is below 3% if engine speed is below
1000 RPM.
Throttle angle is below 10% if engine speed is above
1000 RPM.
The MAP sensor indicates an intermittent manifold
absolute pressure above 80 kPa for a total of
approximately 5 seconds over a 16-second period of
time.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The PCM will not illuminate the malfunction indicator
lamp (MIL).
The PCM will store conditions which were present
when the DTC was set as Failure Records data only.
This information will not be stored as Freeze Frame
data.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
A history DTC P1106 will clear after 40 consecutive
warm-up cycles have occurred without a fault.
DTC P1106 can be cleared by using the Tech 2 ªClear

Diagnostic Aids
Check for the following conditions:
Leaking or plugged vacuum supply line to the MAP
sensor.
Inspect PCM harness connectors for backed-out
terminals, improper mating, broken locks, improperly
formed or damaged terminals, and poor
terminal-to-wire connection.
Inspect the wiring harness for damage. If the harness
appears to be OK, observe the MAP display on the
Tech 2 while moving connectors and wiring harnesses
related to the sensor. A change in the display will
indicate the location of the fault.
Reviewing the Failure Records vehicle mileage since the
