Hummer H3 code is P0105 now, so I ordered a Map Sensor. I hope this fixes the rough idle/check engine light. I already changed plugs, wires, air filter PVC hose, Mass air sensor and cleaned the Throttle body. First code was P0305, now it's P0105. Trying to do the cheaper stuff before I take it to a shop. Wish me luck!!!

[@palmbearoftexas2007]

Thank you. I started my car today, went to a local destination (9 min. drive), and when I pulled into the parking lot and was on my brake, my car’s RPM was fluctuating between 1-3K. At stop signs and red lights, it was a terribly rough idle, such that I was hitting 0.2K RPM, nearly killing my engine while in traffic. I sure hope it’s the MAP Sensor that is causing all this; your video seems to be pointing to so.

[@skeetersaurus6249]

CHECK YOUR HOSES going to the MAP sensor! One hole, and it will act like the MAP is going bad! If hoses are good, and you replace the MAP and idle is still 'floating', you MIGHT have a stuck open IAC (Idle air control) valve...normally as easy as a TPS switch to replace...IAC and MAP work together on idle...and from what I've seen, the 'tattle tale' for a bad MAP is backfiring, while a bad hose and stuck IAC is a steady or floating idle WITHOUT miss or backfire.

[@rickystarling2863]

Had all of this happen to me on my way to work last week. Turns out that it was the pigtail connector becoming loose. If you have an older car it's a good idea to zip tie your connector and map sensor connection. Check the wiring on the pigtail first to ensure it isn't a wiring issue.

4.7 liter Jeep. Have 1800miles on a new engine. I got P0108 code and cleared it. MAP sensors apparently do fail. My symptoms are clouds of smoke. I tried running some 89 octane and that compounded the issue. Smokes even worse. I’m certain the engine is fine so this is the next part swap.

[@traviscooper2205]

We have a rough idle, sometimes dies. You reatart, it'll run. We're getting minor white smoke. But no other symptoms of valve cover head gasket issues. No milky oil, no smell of coolant, but are getting bubbling in the coolant reservoir (which we just replaced. Valve cover gasket was replaced earlier this year. Mechanic cleaned off our map sensor. Ran finw for two days, now doing it again.

[@taylormocaby5650]

All are actually great indicators. But the last one. Fuel comes out of your exaughst every time you drive. If you have black smoke it is most likely a manifold gasket leak. And needs to be taken to a shop right away before you cause permanent damage.

Amizing info!! It really helps understand how it all works But if the map sensor is intermittently throwing the wrong voltages and im assuming these voltages are important to the milli volts then how does a DIY tech tests that it's gone bad 😳 unless you have some type of jig that can give it pressure and you can measure precisely the data voltage and be able to compare it to a diagram for hours I don't see how we are able to ever really say... this map sensor is in great condition.

[@j.r.richard8532]

Real good information here especially after just looking at another video and the guy was calling it a Mass Air Flow sensor which it is not ! After much reading on GDI engines and dirty intake valves etc .etc. I just used Lucas GDI cleaner on my 2020 Kia optima 2.5 normally aspirated engine (no turbo) . This engine is not easy to get the cleaner in without crossing over the MAP sensor Everything I have read says to stay away from a Mass Air Flow sensor and I totally get it.. Question:: Is this MAP sensor on my car as sensitive to cleaning products as a MAF. They way I got this cleaner into the manifold looks like the bulk of it is going into the 2 right cylinders. I did use half the can on the other end of the manifold at the PCV hose and that looks like the left 2 cylinders get the bulk of it there. If It was put in through the throttle body it would divide up equally but douse the MAP..

[@JunkBondTrader]

dont necessarily need to replace it. The engine light can come on from a dirty MAP sensor. Use MAP sensor cleaner (and ONLY MAP sensor cleaner), take the sensor out, and give it a good spray all over. Don't spray the part it plugs into, just the removable sensor itself. Let it dry _completely._ And that could be all you need.

Started getting a backfire...but at first, it was rare...but every once in a while it would also 'drop idle' to low...so I think, 'hmmm....TPS sensor'. I replace it...but no change. Idle gets worse, so I think 'IAC valve'...clean everything up and replace it...OMG, my RPM now idles at 3,000! I keep looking, then see it...looks like dirt on a hose. NOPE...ROTTED HOSE on my MAP sensor! Go to replace it...and ANOTHER HOSE connected to it literally FALLS APART in my hands (goes to the PVC valve)! Nice...end up having to replace EVERY SINGLE HOSE going to my MAP Sensor! Get that done...and I can take the new MAP sensor back to the parts house...IT WAS ALL THE DAMN VACUUM LEAKS GOING TO THE MAP SENSOR!

My car out of sudden it shut off on me on a stop sign then the next day when I go to work it was okay but it started to shake at when car was stopped. Thee real problem was when I got off at work I went to get the freeway but it stopped at 20 mph wouldn’t go higher the engine made a weird noise. I had to let go of accelerator and press it again to go higher When I press the accelerator it start to shake and it does go higher than speed and it worked. It kinda shakes too when the I press the accelerator I also told notice the needle in the rpm goes up and down. Can this be a issue ? I haven’t gone to get it check with the check engine machine

[@easyautofix]

Definitely has the symptoms. The next step would be to get that check engine light checked out to read the codes and go from there.

Then when I fill up it goes back off when I park and then start it back up the next day. It has been like that for some time, do you have any idea what it could be? I was thinking map sensor.

I have a 1998 Mitsubishi eclipse with a 2.0l engine (420A). Can a bad EGR cause the engine to burn oil at low rpms? I put new rings, bearings, timing belt, water pump and had the head rebuilt, basically rebuilt the engine. When I first start it up it runs and drives fine but after the engine warms up it lets out a big plume of smoke when I take off from a light or slow down and speed back up. I can't figure out what is causing it to smoke so heavily, it smoke's so heavy that I can't see the car behind me but after a few seconds of driving down the road it clears up and does not smoke until I stop or slow back down and speed up. I have also relaced the fuel pressure regulator, Idle air valve, both temp sending units, and the catalytic converter but it is still burning oil after it warms up, when it is cold it does not burn oil. What can be causing this problem?
