The document provides a testing procedure for the Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor in a 1997 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP. It outlines steps to diagnose potential sensor malfunctions, including checking for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC), verifying voltage parameters, and using a vacuum pump to assess sensor response. Additionally, it includes a voltage range table based on altitude for accurate MAP sensor calibration.

MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE (MAP) SENSOR

1. A malfunction in the MAP sensor circuit should set a related Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in PCM
memory. If a DTC is present, see the TESTS W/CODES article. An out-of-calibration sensor may not
set DTC. Use following procedure to test sensor calibration. If driveability problems exist, MAP sensor
failure is suspected and no MAP code is present, disconnect MAP sensor connector. See Fig. 1. If
driveability condition improves, replace MAP sensor.
2. With ignition on and engine off, check MAP sensor parameter using a scan tool connected to Data Link
Connector (DLC). Voltage should be as specified. See MAP SENSOR VOLTAGE RANGE table. If
MAP sensor voltage is as specified, go to step 3). If voltage is not as specified, check for 5-volt reference
supplied to sensor. Check harness integrity. If no problems are evident, replace MAP sensor.
3. Using a hand-held vacuum pump, apply 10 in. Hg to MAP sensor, and note voltage change. Voltage
should drop about 1.2-2.3 volts less than as specified in table. If voltage is not as specified or voltage
reading does not immediately follow vacuum change, MAP sensor is faulty.
