Boost Pressure Sensor
NOTE:
In the case of this DTC, the intake air system is monitored between the MAF sensors and the throttle.
NOTE:
If connector A is disconnected from the DME control module and the ignition is or was switched on, the 'DME Control Module TIMEOUT' fault is recorded in many control modules.
NOTE:
If control module connector A was disconnected from the DME in the course of troubleshooting or if the voltage supply was interrupted elsewhere (battery, fuse), the throttle adjusting unit must be adapted!
NOTE:
The pressure sensor for the ambient air pressure is installed in the engine control module.
NOTE:
Both MAF sensors must be checked.
- Adaption 'RKAT' is additive, stands at ± 0.0% when unadapted.
- Adaption 'FRAU' is multiplicative, stands at + 1.00 when unadapted.
WORK INSTRUCTION CHART
| Work instruction | Display OK | If not OK | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Check actual values |
|
The adaption is clearly in the positive range Go to step 2 The adaption is clearly in the negative range Go to step 4 The adaption values are in order Go to step 6 |
|
| 2 | The adaption is clearly in the positive range | Check function of the MAF sensor
Measure signal voltage between DME control module connector:
|
Voltage between 0.9 V and 1.1 V Go to step 3 |
Replace faulty MAF sensor(s) → End |
| 3 |
|
Continue troubleshooting, refer to FUEL SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC INJECTION
article → End |
||
| 4 | The adaption is clearly in the negative range | Check function of the MAF sensor
Measure signal voltage between DME control module connector:
|
Voltage between 0.9 V and 1.1 V Go to step 5 |
Replace faulty MAF sensor(s) → End |

| 6a | The adaption values are in order |
|
Throttle adjusting unit mechanically in order Go to step 7 |
Throttle adjusting unit mechanically faulty => Replace throttle adjusting unit → End |
| 6b |
|
Throttle adjusting unit in order Go to step 7 |
Clean throttle adjusting unit and check engine for oil consumption; if necessary, eliminate the cause of damage → End |
|
| 7 | Check intake air temperature sensor | Turbo engine Go to step 7a |
Naturally-aspirated engine Go to step 7b |
|
| 7a |
|
1.9 KΩ - 2.1 KΩ at 20°C Go to step 8 |
Boost pressure sensor faulty => Replace boost pressure sensor → End |
|
| 7b |
|
2,250 Ω - 2,560 Ω at 20°C Go to step 9 |
Intake air temperature sensor faulty => Substitute the right MAF sensor for the left MAF sensor and repeat the test. If this sensor is also faulty, both MAF sensors should be replaced. If only one MAF sensor is replaced, please make sure that the new MAF sensor is installed on the right. Clearly identify the other MAF sensor with the faulty intake air temperature sensor. → End |
|
| 8 | Check ambient pressure sensor
|
The values coincide approximately → End |
The deviation between the values of the ambient pressure sensor and the barometer is too great Go to step 9 |
|
| 9 | Replace DME control module | To do this, you must observe the notes in the introduction on any potential causes of faults! | ||
