Barometric Pressure Sensor Circuit
Circuit Description
The barometric pressure sensor is used by the electronic control module (ECM) to monitor
the barometric pressure. This value is one of many inputs used by the ECM to determine
the correct air/fuel ratio for proper engine operation.
Component Location
The barometric pressure sensor is mounted on the main branch of the engine harness near
the ECM. Refer to Procedure 100-002 for a detailed component location view.
Shop Talk
The barometric pressure sensor shares supply and return wires in the engine harness with
other sensors. Opens and shorts in the engine harness can cause multiple fault codes to be
active. Before troubleshooting Fault Code 222, check for multiple faults.
Possible causes of this fault code include:
z Signal circuit open or shorted to ground in the engine harness or sensor
10:57:59 2007-07-20
z Supply line open or shorted to ground.
Cautions and Warnings
CAUTION
To reduce the possibility of damaging a new ECM, all other active fault
codes must be investigated prior to replacing the ECM.
CAUTION
To reduce the possibility of pin and harness damage, use the following
test leads when taking a measurement:
Part Number 3164596 - male Framatome test lead
Part Number 3822917 - female Deutsch/AMP/Metri-Pack test lead.
