DTC P0068:00 [MZI-3.7]

DTC P0068:00

MAP/MAF-throttle position correlation

DETECTION CONDITION
•  The PCM monitors a vehicle operation rationality check by comparing sensed throttle position to mass air flow readings. If during a KOER self-test, the comparison of the TP sensor and MAF sensor readings are not consistent with the calibrated load values, test fails and a DTC is stored in continuous memory.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  Air leak between MAF sensor and throttle body
•  TP sensor or MAF sensor malfunction
•  TP sensor not seated correctly

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA HAS BEEN RECORDED
•  Has FREEZE FRAME DATA been recorded?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Record FREEZE FRAME DATA on the repair order, then go to the next step.
2
VERIFY RELATED SERVICE INFORMATION AVAILABILITY
•  Verify related Service Information availability.
•  Is any related Service Information available?
Yes
Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available Service Information.
•  If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
3
VERIFY RELATED PENDING CODE OR STORED DTC
•  Verify the related PENDING CODE or stored DTCs.
•  Are other DTCs present?
Yes
Go to appropriate DTC inspection.
No
Go to the next step.
4
INSPECT FOR INLET AIR LEAKS
•  Listen for air noise around the MAF sensor and throttle body while the engine is running.
•  Is a concern present?
Yes
Repair as necessary, then go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
5
INSPECT FOR TP2 SIGNAL HIGH VERSUS LOAD WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE
•  Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine running).
•  Access the TP2 and LOAD PIDs using the M-MDS.
•  Is the TP2 PID more than 2.44 V and the LOAD PID less than 30%?
Yes
Replace the malfunctioning part, then go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
6
INSPECT FOR TP2 SIGNAL LOW VERSUS LOAD WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE
•  Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine running).
•  Access the PCM and monitor the TP2 and LOAD PIDs
•  Is the TP2 PID less than 0.24 V and the LOAD PID more than 55%?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part, then go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
7
INSPECT FOR SELF-TEST DTCS
•  Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine running).
•  Clear DTC from memory using M-MDS.
•  Drive the vehicle while exercising the throttle.
•  Retrieve the continuous memory DTCs.
•  Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Replace the malfunctioning part, then go to the next step.
No
Perform the “INTERMITTENT CONCERN TROUBLESHOOTING”. Then go to the next step.
8
VERIFY TROUBLESHOOTING OF DTC P0068:00 HAS BEEN COMPLETED
•  Verify that all disconnected connectors reconnected.
•  Clear DTC from memory using M-MDS.
•  Start engine.
•  Perform the KOEO or KOER self-test.
•  Is same DTC present?
Yes
Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the PCM.
Go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
9
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
•  Perform the “AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE”.
•  Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
No
Troubleshooting completed.
