Theory of Operation
The Air Cooler Temperature Sensor (CAC) and the Boost Pressure Sensor are combined in one sensor and are located near the EGR Airflow Throttle Control Valve. The Boost Pressure Sensor is used to measure pressure in the intake manifold. The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides a 5-volt supply and sensor ground for the Boost Pressure Sensor. The Boost Pressure Sensor provides a signal back to the ECM on the Boost Pressure Sensor Signal circuit. The ECM will detect a low signal voltage at operating conditions such as during an idle or a deceleration. The ECM will detect a high signal voltage during high engine load operating conditions. At key on, the readings for the Boost Pressure Sensor, Exhaust Gas Pressure Sensor, and Barometric Pressure Sensor are compared. This fault code occurs if the boost pressure reading is different from the others. During normal engine operation, the ECM estimates the Boost Pressure Sensor value using other fuel system related inputs. The ECM compares the actual Boost Pressure Sensor reading to this estimated value.If the two values are out of range for a calibrated period of time, an error is recorded. The key-on portion of the rationality will light the MIL immediately after the diagnostic runs and fails. The rationality portion will light the MIL immediately and the ETC lamp will also be illuminated. The ECM turns off the MIL when the diagnostic runs and passes in 4 consecutive drive cycles.
