Skewed Signal Test
- Ignition OFF, remove the vacuum source from the MAP sensor
- Ignition ON, observe and recorded the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter. This is the first MAP sensor reading
- With the J 23738-A or J 35555 , apply 5 in Hg (17 kPa) of vacuum to the MAP sensor. Observe and record the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter. This is the second MAP sensor reading
- Subtract the second MAP sensor reading from the first MAP sensor reading. Verify that the vacuum decrease is within 1 in Hg (4 kPa) of the applied vacuum.
- If the vacuum decrease is not within the specified range, replace the MAP sensor
- With the J 23738-A or J 35555 , apply 10 in Hg (34 kPa) of vacuum to the MAP sensor. Observe and record the scan tool MAP Sensor parameter. This is the third MAP sensor reading
- Subtract the third MAP sensor reading from the first MAP sensor reading. Verify that the vacuum decrease is within 1 in Hg (4 kPa) of the applied vacuum
- If the voltage reading is erratic, replace the MAP sensor
