DESCRIPTION

A01VJ1EE07

The turbo pressure sensor detects the intake manifold pressure. The ECM determines the basic injection duration and injection advance timing based on the voltage output from the turbo pressure sensor.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note

When replacing the ECM, the ECM needs Registration and Initialization Click here.

Tech Tips


  • When the ECM must be replaced, before replacing the ECM, perform the "Learning Values Save" function using the intelligent tester. Then after installing the new ECM, perform all of the initialization/registrations for the "Learning Values Write" function by following the instructions shown on the tester display.

  • Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE


  1. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (MAP AND ATMOSPHERE PRESSURE)


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the tester on.

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / MAP and Atmosphere Pressure.

    4. Compare the values when the ignition switch is ON.

      Standard
      Difference between the MAP and the Atmosphere Pressure is less than 7 kPa.

      Tech Tips

      Standard atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. For every 100 m increase in altitude, pressure drops by 1 kPa. Varies by weather.

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (DIESEL TURBO PRESSURE SENSOR - ECM)


    1. Disconnect the diesel turbo pressure sensor connector.

    2. Disconnect the ECM connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      B49-2 (PIM) - A59-13 (PIM) Always Below 1 Ω
      B49-3 (VC) - A59-14 (VPIM) Always Below 1 Ω
      B49-1 (E) - A59-15 (EPIM) Always Below 1 Ω
      B49-2 (PIM) or A59-13 (PIM) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      B49-3 (VC) or A59-14 (VPIM) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      B49-1 (E) or A59-15 (EPIM) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
