DTC Descriptors
DTC P0105 03: Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor Circuit Low Voltage
DTC P0105 07: Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor Circuit High Voltage
DTC P0105 5A: Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor Circuit Not Plausible
Circuit/System Description
The turbocharger pressure sensor measures the pressure inside the intake manifold. Pressure in the intake manifold is affected by turbocharger output, engine speed, accelerator pedal input, air temperature, and barometric pressure (BARO). A diaphragm within the turbocharger pressure sensor is displaced by the pressure changes that occur from the varying load and operating conditions of the engine. The engine control module (ECM) supplies a regulated 5 V to the sensor on the 5-volt reference circuit. The ECM supplies a ground on the low reference circuit. The turbocharger pressure sensor provides a signal voltage to the ECM, relative to the pressure changes, on signal circuit. The ECM converts the signal voltage input to a pressure value. Under normal operation, the lowest pressure that can exist in the intake manifold is equal to the BARO. This occurs when the engine is operating at idle or when the ignition is ON and the engine is OFF. The ECM uses the turbocharger pressure sensor to aid in diagnosis of the turbocharger performance. The highest manifold pressures occur when the turbocharger output is high. Manifold pressure can range from 58 kPa (8 PSI) when pressure is low, to greater than 240 kPa (34 PSI) when pressure is high, depending on the BARO. The turbocharger pressure sensor has a range of 33-255 kPa (4-36 PSI).
Conditions for Running the DTC
• | DTCs P0069, P0652, P2226, P2228, and P2229 are not set. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
P0105 03, P0105 07
The ECM detects the MAP sensor signal circuit is open, shorted to ground, or shorted to a voltage for greater than 1 s.
P0105 5A
The ECM detects the difference between the MAP sensor signal and the BARO sensor signal is greater than 20 kPa (2.9 PSI) for greater than 2 s.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTC P0105 is a Type B DTC.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTC P0105 is a Type B DTC.
Diagnostic Aids
• | If a shared 5-volt reference circuit is shorted to ground or shorted to a voltage, other 5-volt reference circuits may be affected. |
• | The scan tool 5-volt reference parameters should display OK. |

Circuit/System Verification
- Ignition On, observe the DTC information with a scan tool. Verify that DTCs P0641, P0651, or P0697 is not set.
- Determine the current vehicle testing altitude. Ignition ON, observe the scan tool BARO Sensor parameter. Compare the parameter to the Altitude Versus Barometric Pressure .
- Ignition ON, observe the scan tool Boost Pressure Sensor parameter. The Boost Pressure Sensor parameter should match the BARO sensor parameter.
- Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
Circuit/System Testing
- Verify the integrity of the entire air induction system by inspecting for the following conditions:
• | Loose or improper installation |
• | Verify there are no restrictions in the B111 Turbocharger Boost Sensor port or vacuum source. |
⇒ | If a condition is found, repair as necessary. |
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B111 Turbocharger Boost Sensor.
- Test for less than 5 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 4 and ground.
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module. |
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 V between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal 2 and ground.
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module. |
- Verify the scan tool Boost Pressure Sensor parameter is less than 24 kPa.
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module. |
- Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 1 and the 5-volt reference circuit terminal 2. Verify the Boost Pressure Sensor parameter is between 40-45 kPa (5.8-6.5 PSI).
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for an open or a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module. |
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the B111 Turbocharger Boost Sensor.
