I. MANIFOLD AIR PRESSURE SENSOR AND
TEMPERATURE SENSOR (T-MAP)
COMPONENT DETAILS
T-MAP sensor consists of a silicon chip mounted
inside a reference chamber. On one side of the
chip is the reference chamber and on the other
side is the pressure to be measured. The
electrical resistance of the chip varies with the
variation of pressure. This change in resistance
alters the voltage signal. ECM interprets the
voltage signal as pressure and any change in
voltage signal as change in pressure. The
temperature sensor element is a NTC resistor.
COMPONENT LOCATION
T-MAP Sensors are mounted on Intake Manifold
and the hose from intercooler to electronic
throttle.
PRELIMINARY CHECKS
1. Inlet Air Circuit Clogging.
2. Loose / Damaged connections between
sensor and EMS ECU
3. Check for back out of pins at both sensor
connector and ECU connector.
4. Check for damage of pins at both sensor
connector and ECU connector.

COMPONENT SPECIFICATION
T-MAP Sensor is used to measure the
temperature & pressure of the Intake Air one
before electronic throttle and other on the intake
manifold .The piezo-resistive pressure sensor
element and a suitable circuitry for signal
amplification are integrated on a silicon chip. The
measured pressure operates from above to the
active side of the silicon diaphragm. Temperature
sensor is a NTC Element. Sensors are mounted
on Intake Manifold and the hose from intercooler
to electronic throttle and the bolt tightened at
specified torque.
The T-MAP sensor is a four pin peizo-resistance
semiconductor
device
with
a
negative
temperature coefficient. The T-MAP sensor
provides intake air pressure and temperature
details to ECU, which then calculates the correct
quantity of fuel to be injected to each cylinder.
A DC signal voltage is produced by the sensor,
which gets excited due to varying manifold air
pressure which is felt on semiconductor
diaphragm
