For 1990-2009 cars

The PCM has internal tables that compare MAP sensor values with TP sensor values. The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor is a transducer that varies resistance according to changes in intake manifold pressure (vacuum). The voltage ranges from 1-1.5 volts at idle (low pressure/high vacuum) to 4.5-4.8 volts at wide open throttle (high pressure/low vacuum). The throttle position (TP) sensor is a potentiometer that varies resistance according to changes in throttle plate position. The voltage ranges from 0.15-0.55 volts at 0 percent throttle to over 4.65 volts at wide open throttle. DTC P0105 sets when the 2 values are out of the calibrated range from the table values.

### Conditions for Setting the DTC

DTC P0105 will set if MAP sensor voltage or TP sensor voltage is out of range for 14 seconds when:

• | The engine run time is greater than 40 seconds.

• | The engine speed is between 600-6,375 RPM.

• | The engine speed change is less than 50 RPM.

• | The IAC change is less than 5 counts.

• | The TP angle change is less than 2 percent.

• | The TCC PWM change is less than 1.3 percent (auto only)

• | No cam, CKP, ECT, EVAP leak, fuel injector, fuel tank pressure, fuel trim, idle speed, MAP, misfire, O2S-1, TP, P0446, P0502, or P1441 DTCs have been set.

DTC P0105 diagnostic runs continuously once the above conditions have been met.

P0105 is a type B DTC.

### Diagnostic Aids

If DTC P0453 is also set, a short to voltage on the 5 volt reference circuit may exist. Refer to "5 Volt Reference Circuit Error Diagnosis" in this section.

This DTC will set if either MAP or TP is out of range. To distinguish which one has failed, review Failure Record information and attempt to duplicate the conditions.

Check PCM and MAP/TP sensors for corrosion in connectors.

Important: Inaccurate readings will occur if resistance measurements are taken on a MAP sensor. The MAP sensor contains an internal amplifier circuit that requires applied voltage to function properly.

Use the scan tool to monitor the TP sensor as the accelerator pedal is slowly depressed. The voltage should change smoothly from 0.35 volts at 0 percent throttle, to 4.45-4.85 volts at wide open throttle.
