Description:

  • The fault code indicates a correlation issue between the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor and the barometric pressure sensor. This can lead to poor engine performance, reduced fuel efficiency, and potential engine stalling or hesitation.

Possible Symptoms:

  • Illuminated Check Engine Light (CEL)

  • Reduced engine power or acceleration

  • Engine stalling or hesitation during acceleration

  • Decreased fuel economy

  • Rough idling or engine misfires

  • Potential difficulty in starting the engine

Possible Causes:

  • Malfunctioning MAP sensor

  • Malfunctioning barometric pressure sensor

  • Wiring issues in the MAP/barometric pressure sensor circuit

  • PCM software malfunction or failure

  • Vacuum leak

  • Restricted or clogged intake air duct or air filter

  • Failed EGR valve

Related Parts:

  • Barometric (BARO) Pressure Sensor: The barometric sensor is responsible for measuring the atmospheric pressure of the environment that the car is driving in. Problems lead to engine misfire & poor fuel economy

  • Manifold Pressure Sensor: Manifold Pressure sensor measures the pressure of air flowing in the engine from outside to ensure proper fuel combustion. This car's malfunctioning pressure sensor will lead to engine misfire, poor fuel economy & rough running

Possible Solutions:

  • Inspect and repair any damaged or corroded wiring in the MAP/barometric pressure sensor circuit.

  • Replace the faulty MAP or barometric pressure sensor.

  • Replace the PCM if it is determined to be faulty.

  • Verify proper functioning of the EGR valve.

  • Check for restrictions or clogs in the intake air duct and air filter and replace if necessary.
