Component Inspection (MAP Sensor)

2019 Infiniti Q70 3.7 Luxe, AWDSECTION Component Inspection (MAP Sensor)
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. CHECK MAP SENSOR-IΒ 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
    3. Turn ignition switch OFF, wait at least 5 seconds and then turn ON.
    4. Check the voltage between ECM harness connector terminals as follows.

      NOTE:
      • To avoid the influence of intake manifold vacuum, check the voltage 1 or more minutes past after engine is stopped.
      • Because the sensor is absolute pressure sensor, output value may differ depending on atmospheric pressure and altitude.
    5. Measure the atmospheric pressure.
      NOTE: As the atmospheric pressure described on the synoptic chart is the value at sea level, compensate the pressure with the following chart.

      Altitude (m)

  2. CHECK MAP SENSOR-IIΒ 
    1. Start engine and let it idle.
    2. Check intake manifold vacuum.
    3. Check the voltage between ECM harness connector terminals as per the following.

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • β€’ You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • β€’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • β€’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • β€’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
  • β€’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
