    MAP sensor

    I have a 2003 ski 206 with a ZR6 6.0. i am getting a MAP sensor warning and she is running rough under load. Can I just clean the sensor or do I need to replace it?

    I don't know on 6.0 but it is probably the same as I've seen on others.

    There is what looks like a vacuum port with a crappy sponge filter. Clean or even remove the filter and make sure none of the filter is in the port. Blow it out easily with low pressure air or breath.

    That is probably the best you can do...besides replacing it.

      I got a MAP sensor error the other weekend. I agree with cleaning things out and looking for a vacuum leak.

      Also, once they are set, you will keep getting the error until you reset it. You have to bring it to a dealer, or buy a reset tool. If you don't want to do either of those, but you are handy enough, I can walk you through how to reset it with a paper-clip. Not the safest, but really it does the same thing that the reset tool does... but you have to get it right as you could short things out.

      Diagnose it first and make sure things are running right. If you get that far and still get the code, I can help you reset it.

        I have an 04 5.7 pcm and am getting a MAP sensor warning, can this cause a no-start?

          Just found this in the MEFI-4 diag manual:

          • A defective MAP sensor may cause a no start or a
          start and stall condition.
