DTC P0068: Map/MAF - Throttle Position Correlation: Notes

DTC detecting condition: 

Detected when two consecutive driving cycles with fault occur.

CAUTION: After servicing or replacing faulty parts, perform Clear Memory Mode Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DO)>Clear Memory Mode>OPERATION , and inspection mode Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DO)>Inspection Mode>PROCEDURE .
  1. CHECK AIR INTAKE SYSTEM. 

    Check the air intake system.

    Are there holes, loose bolts or disconnection of hose on air intake system?

    Yes:  Repair the air intake system.

    No:  Go to  2

  2. CHECK MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE SENSOR. 
    1. Start the engine and warm up engine until coolant temperature is higher than 75°C (167°F).
    2. Place the select lever in "P" range or "N" range.
    3. Turn the A/C switch to OFF.
    4. Turn all the accessory switches to OFF.
    5. Read the value of «Mani. Absolute Pressure» using the Subaru Select Monitor or a general scan tool.
      NOTE:
      • Subaru Select Monitor

        For detailed operation procedures, refer to "Current Data Display For Engine". Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DO)>SUBARU SELECT MONITOR

      • General scan tool

        For detailed operation procedures, refer to the general scan tool operation manual.

    Is the value in «Mani. Absolute Pressure» 73.3 - 106.6 kPa (550 - 800 mmHg, 21.65 - 31.50 inHg) when the ignition is turned ON, and 20.0 - 46.7 kPa (150 - 350 mmHg, 5.91 - 13.78 inHg) during idling?

    Yes:  Go to  3

    No:  Replace the manifold absolute pressure sensor. Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (H4DO)>MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE SENSOR

  3. CHECK THROTTLE OPENING ANGLE. 

    Using the Subaru Select Monitor or a general scan tool, read the value in «Throttle Opening Angle».

    NOTE:
    • Subaru Select Monitor

      For detailed operation procedures, refer to "Current Data Display For Engine". Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DO)>SUBARU SELECT MONITOR

    • General scan tool

      For detailed operation procedures, refer to the general scan tool operation manual.

    Is the value in «Throttle Opening Angle» with the throttle fully closed less than 5%?

    Yes:  Go to  4

    No:  Replace the electronic throttle control. Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (H4DO)>THROTTLE BODY

  4. CHECK THROTTLE OPENING ANGLE. 

    Is the value in «Throttle Opening Angle» with the throttle fully open 85% or more?

    Yes:  Replace the manifold absolute pressure sensor. Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (H4DO)>MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE SENSOR

    No:  Replace the electronic throttle control. Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (H4DO)>THROTTLE BODY
