Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0106 MAP System Performance
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 at wide-open throttle (low
vacuum) at sea level.
The MAP sensor is used to determine manifold pressure
changes while the linear exhaust gas recirculation (EGR)
flow test diagnostic is being run (refer to DTC P0401),
engine vacuum level for some other diagnostics, and
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 varies excessively above or
below the calculated value, DTC P0106 will set.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
No TP sensor DTCs are present.
Engine speed is steady, changing less then 100 RPM.
Engine speed is between 1000 rpm and 4000 rpm.
Throttle position is steady, throttle angle changes less
than 1%.
EGR flow rate is steady, changing less than 4%.
No change in brake switch, A/C clutch, TCC or power
steering pressure switch status.
Above conditions are met for longer than 1 second.
Actual MAP value varies more than 10 kPa.The MAP value must vary for a total of 10 seconds over
a 20-second period of time that the samples were
monitored.
The failure must occur for 2 consecutive trips.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The PCM will illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL) after the second consecutive trip in which the
fault is detected.
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 P0106 will clear after 40 consecutive
warm-up cycles have occurred without a fault.
DTC P0106 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:
Poor connection at PCM ± Inspect harness connectors
for backed-out terminals, improper mating, broken
locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and
poor terminal-to-wire connection.

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0117 ECT Sensor Circuit Low Voltage
D06RY00148
Circuit Description
The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is a
thermistor mounted on a coolant crossover pipe at the
front of the engine. The powertrain control module (PCM)
applies a voltage (about 5 volts) through a pull-up resistor
to the ECT signal circuit. When the engine coolant is cold,
the sensor (thermistor) resistance is high, therefore the
PCM will measure a high signal voltage. As the engine
coolant warms, the sensor resistance becomes lower,
and the ECT signal voltage measured at the PCM drops.
With a fully warmed-up engine, the ECT signal voltage
should measure about 1.5 to 2.0 volts.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
Engine running time is longer than 120 seconds.
The ECT sensor signal indicates an engine coolant
temperature greater than 150C (302F) (about 0.10
V) for a total of 50 seconds over a 100±second period.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The PCM will ON the MIL after second trip with
detected fault.
The PCM will substitute the ECT reading with a default
engine coolant temperature value. The default value
is based on start-up intake air temperature and running
time.
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 P0117 will clear after 40 consecutive
warm-up cycles have occurred without a fault.
DTC P0117 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:
Poor connection at PCM ± Inspect harness connectors
for backed-out terminals, improper mating, broken
locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and
poor terminal-to-wire connection.
Damaged harness ± Inspect the wiring harness for
damage. If the harness appears to be OK, observe the
ECT display on the Tech 2 while moving connectors
and wiring harnesses related to the ECT sensor. A
change in the ECT display will indicate the location of
the fault.
If DTC P0117 cannot be duplicated, the information
included in the Failure Records data can be useful in

P0125 ECT Excessive Time to Closed Loop Fuel Control
060R200053
Circuit Description
To provide the best possible combination of driveability,
fuel economy, and emission control, a ªclosed loopº
air/fuel metering system is used. When the vehicle is first
started, the powertrain control module (PCM) controls
fuel delivery in ªopen loopº, ignoring the heated oxygen
sensor (HO2S) signals and calculating air/fuel ratio based
on inputs from the engine coolant temperature, throttle
position, and mass air flow sensors. The PCM will begin
using the Bank 1 HO2S 1 and Bank 2 HO2S 1 signals for
controlling fuel delivery under ªclosed loopº conditions
when the following conditions have been met:
The HO2S output signals are varying, indicating that
the sensors are hot enough to operate properly.
The engine coolant temperature sensor indicates
coolant temperature above 50C (122F).
Time since start-up is at least 16 seconds for a warm
engine or 23 seconds for a cold engine.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
No active IAT, MAF or ECT DTC(s) are present.
Engine is running.
Vehicle speed is greater than 5 mph (8 km/h) .
Intake air temperature is greater than ±10C (14F)
0C (32F).
Start±up engine coolant temperature is between
±10C (±14F) and 28C (82F).For a warm engine (intake air temperature is greater
than 10C/50F), engine coolant temperature
sufficient to allow ªclosed loopº operation
(50C/122F) is not achieved within 2 minutes of
start-up. For a cold engine (intake air temperature
between (±7C and 10C), engine coolant
temperature sufficient to allow ªclosed loopº operation
(50C/122F) is not achieved within 10 minutes of
start-up.
The above condition fails 20 consecutive times.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The PCM will ON the MIL after second trip with
detected fault.
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 P0125 will clear after 40 consecutive
warm-up cycles have occurred without a fault.
DTC P0125 can be cleared by using the Tech 2 ªClear
