Description and operation
Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor (MAPS) is a speed-density type sensor and is
installed on the surge tank. It senses absolute pressure of the surge tank and transfers
the analog signal proportional to the pressure to the ECM. By using this signal,
the ECM calculates the intake air quantity and engine speed.
The MAPS consists of a piezo-electric element and a hybrid IC amplifying the
element output signal. The element is silicon diaphragm type and adapts pressure
sensitive variable resistor effect of semi-conductor. Because 100% vacuum and the
manifold pressure apply to both sides of the sensor respectively, this sensor can
output analog signal by using the silicon variation proportional to pressure change.

Repair procedures
1. |
Connect a KDS/GDS on Data Link Connector (DLC).
|
2. |
Check MAPS output voltage at idle and IG ON.

|
1. |
Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal.
|
2. |
Disconnect the manifold absolute pressure sensor connector (A).
|
3. |
Remove the installation screw (B), and then remove the sensor from the
surge tank.

|
• |
Install the component with the specified torques.
|
• |
Note that internal damage may occur when the component is dropped.
In this case, use it after inspecting.
|
• |
Insert the sensor in the installation hole and be careful not
to damage when installation.
|
|
1. |
Installation is reverse of removal.
