What can cause a P0108 code?

What can cause a P0108 code?

What are the Possible Causes of the P0108 Code?

• Defective MAP/BARO sensor.
• Faulty, corroded, or loose MAP/BARO sensor circuit wiring or connections.
• Restricted vacuum source for the MAP/BARO sensor.
• Defective, damaged, or clogged catalytic converter(s)
• In rare cases, a malfunctioning ECM.

Where is the MAP sensor on a 2006 Ford Explorer?

The EGR module appears to be mounted to the throttle body near the firewall on the passenger side. The exhaust pickup tube is attached to the EGR and to the exhaust manifold near the firewall. The MAP sensor appears to be integral with the module (where the electrical connection is attached).

Can I drive with P0138?

It is okay to drive a vehicle with P0138 for a short period of time, but driving with this code for an extended period of time can damage the catalytic converter(s).

How do you fix P0138?

What repairs can fix the P0138 code?

1. Replacing the O2 sensor for bank 1 sensor 2.
2. Repairing or replacing the wiring or connection to the O2 sensor for bank 1 sensor 2.
3. Replacing the catalyst in front of the sensor.
4. Repairing a leaking injector.

What does the OBD code p0108 mean on a Ford Explorer?

P0108 is a generic OBD-II trouble code. It indicates your Ford Explorer’s MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor’s voltage reading is outside of the normal operating range. The voltage is too high.

How does the p0108 light work on a Honda Accord?

It does this by sending a voltage ranging from 1 to 5 volts. 1 volt would be idle speed. The signal should be at 5 volts whenever the vehicle is at wide open throttle. P0108 is triggered whenever the signal from this wire is MORE THAN 5 volts, which shouldn’t happen.

How does the MAP sensor work on a Ford Explorer?

The MAP sensor measures the air pressure coming into your Explorer’s engine and sends that signal to the ECM. It does this by sending a voltage ranging from 1 to 5 volts. 1 volt would be idle speed. The signal should be at 5 volts whenever the vehicle is at wide open throttle.

What causes idle speed to drop on Ford Explorer?

It’s most commonly caused by a bad MAP sensor, wiring issue, or vacuum leak. The MAP sensor measures the air pressure coming into your Explorer’s engine and sends that signal to the ECM. It does this by sending a voltage ranging from 1 to 5 volts. 1 volt would be idle speed.
