Manifold Absolute Pressure - Barometric Pressure Correlation

At engine cranking or key-on the intake manifold pressure should equal barometric pressure within tolerance. The ECU detects a deviation indicating sensor drift or vacuum line issues.

Affected components

  • Manifold absolute pressure sensor
  • Barometric pressure sensor
  • Vacuum hose

Common causes

  • High likelihood: MAP sensor failed or drifted
  • Medium likelihood: Vacuum hose to MAP sensor leaking

Diagnostic notes

  • The malfunction indicator lamp may illuminate
  • This code can affect emissions
  • A drive cycle may be required after repair
