25392, Testing MAP Sensor
Posted by Talon95Stang, Jun-17-02 05:49 PM
I need some help testing my map sensor. I'm getting a code for the MAP sensor and want to test it but there is nothing on the MAP in my book.

I just want to know how to test it and what the readings should be.

OK but how do I test mine? Like resistance from the sensor. and voltage from the wire harness?

and If i get nitrous is it still safe with a messed up MAP sensor?

After starting the engine, you should see just under 5 volts between the black/green stripe wire and the green/yellow strip wires. That confirms that the sensor is being powered. With the engine idling, you should see a low voltage between the black/green stripe wire and the yellow/black stripe wire. That voltage should rise as you open the throttle up. It should get near 4.7 volts as you open the throttle up alot.
