DTC P1128: MAP Sensor Signal Lower Than Expected

NOTE:
  • Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information (see GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION ).
  • Before starting this troubleshooting, check for poor connections or a blockage at the intake air duct.
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
  2. Check the MAP SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the HDS.

    Is less than 54.1 kPa (16.0 inHg, 406 mmHg) or 1.61 V held for more than 5 seconds? 

    YES  -Go to step  7.

    NO  -Go to step 3.

  3. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
  4. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (A/T in P or N, M/T in neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
  5. Test-drive under these conditions:
    • Engine coolant temperature (ECT SENSOR 1) above 158°F(70°C)
    • Engine speed about 1,200 rpm or more
    • A/T in D, M/T in 3rd
    • Vehicle speed about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more under half throttle
  6. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P1128 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.

    Does the screen indicate FAILED? 

    YES  -Go to step 7.

    NO  -If the screen indicates PASSED, intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the MAP sensor and the ECM/PCM. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, go to step  4 and recheck.

  7. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), or press the engine start/stop button to select the OFF mode.
  8. Replace the MAP sensor (see MAF SENSOR/IAT SENSOR REPLACEMENT  ).
  9. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
  10. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.
  11. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE ).
  12. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (A/T in P or N, M/T in neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
  13. Test-drive under these conditions:
    • Engine coolant temperature (ECT SENSOR 1) above 158°F(70°C)
    • Engine speed about 1,200 rpm or more
    • A/T in D, M/T in 3rd
    • Vehicle speed about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more under half throttle
  14. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

    Is DTC P1128 indicated? 

    YES  -Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the MAP sensor and the ECM/PCM, then go to step  1.

    NO  -Go to step 15.

  15. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P1128 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.

    Does the screen indicate PASSED? 

    YES  -Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated in step  14, go to the INDICATED DTC'S TROUBLESHOOTING .

    NO  -If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the MAP sensor and the ECM/PCM, then go to step  1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, go to step  12.
