- Simple DIY how to: Service or change the T-MAP (Temperature & Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensor on a Ford Duratec HE or Mazda LF engine.
Dirty or faulty MAP sensors can lead to rough idle and engine tune problems. They get dirty over time along with the rest of the insides of an intake manifold, and it's good practice to service them by just cleaning from time to time.
Or if faulty, it will need replacing.

You will need:
- T20 torx drive bit and a small ratchet handle or other compact driver suitable for small confines
- Flashlight
- Brake clean or similar plastic-safe solvent for cleaning
- Spanner to remove battery negative cable.

Dude, you were the only one I found that gave the location of this part accurately. And showed, live, how to remove and replace it even though it's soooooo difficult to get to and see. Thank you soooo much.!!! Good work. Saved me so much grief. and helped me service it faster.
Very well spoken and proper informative. Subscribed :)
Excellent videos mate u helped me so much thanks
Yeeeeesss..... Thank you. This is the videos we would like to see. This kind of information videos are actually usefull. Thank you very much!!! I already changed mine because i thought it was causing weird gear changing in the automatic transmission. At the end, it didnt.
Woooow! This worked great on my Mondeo MK3 2.0 Duratec HE. I have cleaned sensor with EGR cleaner, but removed gasket on sensor first as it's quite agressive. After putting it back performance +50% on acceleration. Before my mondeo was like an old and heavy cow. Sensor was coveret with oily mud and dirt. Now my car runs like racing horse! Much thanks!
Replaced the T-Map sensor on my 2006 Focus 1.8 Duratech and the dam fixing screw sheared inside the manifold .. had to glue it in place for a temp fix .. 2 pack plactic body glue did the trick ...
It seems someone at Ford really hates people trying to clean their MAP sensors. Still, be glad you don't have the old Zetec SE engine - this placement of the MAP sensor is awkward, but it's still much better than on that Zetec. To be able to get to it there, you have to remove the accessory belt and alternator. The MAP sensor is hidden behind the manifold tubes and the screws are positioned at such angle that it's just impossible to get to it any other way.
Very nice video, BTW.
You're not wrong.They made this a pain in the arse to get to on the fiesta ST150. I may need to get the manifold out or move PS lines just to get at it. I'm going to assume conspiracy :)
That sounds like far too much of an arseache. What I loved about the old blacktop Zetecs they put in the 1.8 and 2.0 Focuses (Focii?) was pretty much everything was easily accessible. Just about the only thing I had a small issue with in terms of access was the idle air control valve.
yeah I'm the unlucky owner of one of those.. today I got myself a brand new T-Map sensor, a bluetooth dongle to clear the codes and off I went to replace the darn thing... after about 1 h of trying to get the belt back on I reconnect the battery , connect the OBD2 bluetooth dongle to an app , send the clear comand, check again and then start the engine.. it just starts and stalls right after..tried leaving the battery disconected for longer, turning the key without battery on in hopes for a capacitor discharge, shorted the leads .. nothing seems to reset the ECU. now I'm stuck having to put back the old MAP just to drive it to an electrician in hopes that his scanner actually clears the codes...
Exelente video saludos desde México!!
great video
Thanks so much I have a 08 Ford fusion with a 2.3 four cylinder engine and I'm catching hell getting to the screw. But I will get me a set of those hex sockets and try again.
i would like to try this with "prospected faulty" map sensor of a honda jazz... hope it will fix it instead of buying another one.
@craig's DIY Car very informative video thanks! I drive a 2011 transit mk 7 which uses the same MAP sensor. One of four wires from the clip that attaches to the sensor clip has failed and I'm struggling to find a replacement clip. I don't suppose you know where I could get a replacement clip? Many thanks
I need to know map sensor location in daihatsu mira 2014. Kindly share if some body knows
can you see the diaphragm inside the map sensor, looking through the hole?? any visual way of telling if its broken?
Hi ! Do you know how much kpa intake manifold should have ?
Hi sir,I have a Toyota filder and it has problem of vibrating especially when am in traffic both in neutral and drive though it's more in drive. ..is this the problem with airflow meter? thanks
Muchas gracias !
Nunca había podido encontrar la ubicación de este censor .
He preguntado en concesionarios de ford, en refaccionarias, en talleres y en ningún lugar supieron.
I changed my map sensor 2 weeks ago, today it fault code came back. Have you seen this problem before, if you have what did you do ?
Do you still have a hard start now after you replaced the map sensor?
Hi Guys does anyone know where the Map sensor is located on a 2005 Ford Mondeo 2.0 tdci . Thanks
Could not find on the 2003 Taurus but perhaps not included here
Does it makes check engine flash?
Does anyone know where the MAP sensor is located in the vw jetta 2001?
Can anyone tell me map sensor location on fiesta 1.4 tdci?
Craige
I have the exact same issue, engine cranking but not starting on first attempt
Did you solve it? Please share with me in case you did
Hi.can you tell me please , which idle valve is good, which brand?
Could WB40 work as a cleaner?
Great, but I would not disconnect the battery my choice and Only spray mass air cleaner spray on it.
Thanks Craig. did the cleaning of the sensor improve the engine performance for you?
Not that I noticed, I just did it as a service job. It was definitely dirty though. Sensor seems to give sensible data on scan tool.
As anybody can see, the tip of the MAP sensor was dirty, with a lot of oil deposits caused by the terrible (I'd say "shitty") design of the PCV system in all cars. In this case you did not notice any change because the MAP is the least dirty part, just remove the entire inlet manifold to find how dirty the inside is! The gunk and dirt in the manifold is even less than at the inlet ports in the cylinder head and valves. THAT DIRT really messes up idle quality and emissions in some cars.
The ONLY way to cure the crud and dirt deposited in the inlet tract, is to install a oil vapors cooler followed by a properly built "Catch-Can", so that the PCV stream it cooled first to condense most oil vapors, then separate the oil mist in the Catch-Can.
A Catch-Can alone will barely remove oil from the recirculation, as this stream is present as a vapor-mist mix, and sometimes visible oil droplets, dependong on the engine and RPM. Why do auto manufacturers still design their PCV systems so badly? Because they don't care the user will have higher tailpipe emissions and because it costs them pennies as designed, and finally, because they don't care lowering the effective Octane number (lube oil has a terribly LOW octane number, btw)
To really do a proper job, the complete manifold must be removed and cleaned. Finally, Don't attempt to "clean" the inlet manifold with a spray can "lceaner", as you will end up removing ony some crud, but then that dirt is going to form hard deposits inside the combustion chamber, foul the sparkplugs, and more importantly, the O2 sensor and the expensive Cat converter!
Do it properly OUTSIDE the engine. Amclaussen.
My duratec 2.5 stalls on warm start after rpm drops to 500. Fuel trims are near 0%, runs perfect otherwise. Map is 1.5v/32kpa at idle. No codes. I do feel suction with oil cap removed. Can you help?
I hope this fixes my engine light. I found it easier to get from under
2005 Ford 500 where is the map sensor located?
use air sensor cleaner! only this will evaporate completely!
Why wouldn't you use electric parts cleaner? Is it safe to use brake kleen on sensitive electric parts & sensors?
Where is the map censor on a 2011 Kia sportage
Thanks for the video Craig, very clear and methodical. I gave this a go but the T20 retaining screw is rusted and disintegrated. I suspect I'll now have to remove the intake manifold to remove the t-map, unless you have any ideas?
Torx heads are usually pretty robust. And these are not torqued very tightly. Are you not able to get the bit into the head? Can you clean it out? Tap the bit into it (carefully) to get some bite? Maybe a few drops of penetrating oil around the screw.
t map cant get to this from the top, can you get to it from underneath. thanks
Hi Craig
Nice video mate.just a quick question. Screw on the sensor is rusted and rounded off a bit.any suggestions?If I had to replace the screw what dimensions would that be.
I couldn't tell you, other than the driver socket is torx T20. For this reason it shouldn't be 'rounded off', or if it's been damaged by someone trying to mash a cross drive in there then it should still work if you are careful to engage the driver fully. Spray a little penetrating oil on it and try it when engine warm maybe. If you want to replace it, you would have to take it to a fasteners specialist and match the thread, ideally with a stainless steel version.
the screw is the same as for the fog lights.
could i simpley un plug it / an it work
Hi, thanks for it :). But I have a problem. My T-MAP sensor is full of oil. Is that correct? I have ford focus mk2 2007 1,6
your burning oil
it didn't start immediately cause that cleaner stuff (Isopropyl Alcohol) felt cold on the Air temp sensor thus ECM is programmed not to fire up the engine until the parameters of the ATS, ECT seem logical as a fail safe design, so once the Alcohol sucked inside the engine it received the proper/expected air temp it allowed the engine to run
By the time the sensor is installed, ANY alcohol has been long evaporated... It is more related to the practice of DISCONNECTING the battery. In my VW vehicle, disconnecting the battery nor only erases the radio stations, but the partial odometer reading, and causes EXACTLY the same difficulty in restarting. It can be lessened by switching the sarting key several times WITHOUT reaching "start" (just cycle OFF-ON-Off-On-OFF- On and it usually helps reset the computer and get it ready for restarting sooner. Amclaussen.
Doesn't the break cleaner affect that rubber sealing making it dry and brittle?
Yes it does affect ! be carefull only use contact cleaner or maf sensor cleaner.
The screw holding the sensor down is actually a torx T25, not T20.
Only use maf cleaner on it. Brake cleaner will make it attract soot
If you look at your video around the time when you do up the screw, you can see there is a small vacuum hose hanging loose....
Correct. +10 pts if you can identify it
Great videos & audio, Craig. Invaluable these past few days trying to isolate lumpy idle and/or misfire on an '05 Mondeo. Have broken the fragile EVAP purge line near the main fuel injection connector. How is the rubber elbow joined to the manifold (your manifold video 5.47min)? Haven't been able to loosen it; looking to get a replacement.
Thanks for the reply. Perhaps I misunderstood: isn't the collar depress on the brake booster hose? In my case it's the narrow EVAP line that you disconnected from the elbow, rather than elbow from manifold. In manifold video @ 17.22min (to right of flaps actuator plug) there appears to be no collar, just push on (same as valve end?), however, mine is stuff firm and hose won't release at elbow either.
Sorry I jumped to conclusions. So you can see at 5.45 in the manifold video how I disconnect it, if yours is stuck at this joint then it's still a very simple join that a heat gun and some force would always work on. If you want to replace the rubber hose as well, that just goes down and in a few inches to a male connector on the manifold directly underneath the IACV. Again this will just pull off but may require a bit of encouragement. Much easier with manifold off the car of course. I would just leave it in place if it's not damaged.
Edit: you can see it (the hose) very clearly at 14.00, 14.54, etc (next to IACV)
This might be a stupid question xd
But I'm looking to buy a new t-map sensor, but I can only find map sensors is this the same as a t-map sensor ? It says it fits my car and is genuine..
Yes the T in this case just stands for Temperature as it's a thermometer as well as a pressure sensor.
Can I use MAF cleaner?
Yes, it just possibly might not work as well (am not expert on the topic of solvent cleaners though).
I found that its easier to reach t-map sensor from below car. Atleast for 2009 Ford C-Max there is more space below.
Yes you can do it from below, but you would have to lift the car and on many cars remove the splash shield.
Will the brake cleaner damage the rubber O ring?
removing the battery does not wipe the keep alive memory (KAM) for this to happen you have to use a scan tool and wipe the current adaptions.
You still need to clear the capacitors after you disconnect the negative battery cable to clear the computer. It's called a hard reboot.
You got any links for replace ment mine is a ranger 07 tdci
Amazon links in the description. You'll have to check the part # tho, I don't know it's the same for a diesel.
Do these really need cleaning?
Asking because im having performance issues.. and ive never cleaned mine.. its a pain to reach.
Yes well if you're having issues, this is on the list of easy things to rule out. It's not that hard once you arrange a driver you can get into position.
My 2003 Mazda 6 makes it nearly impossible to remove the sensor because the coolant reservoir and the AC line is right on top of the radiator fans. You need the will of a thousand souls to do it with the intake manifold bolted on the engine. So little space for a ratchet and your hands
You can do it more easily from underneath if you lift the car. I showed it from the top because that's possible on this car, but if you're having trouble just get out the axle stands or ramps.
Sorry guys i have ford mondeo 2009 2.3 petrol but i can'find map or maf sensor is it normal??!!
MAP is as shown, no MAF on these engines.
You must wait 1 hour or 24 hours to dry the map later you use the spray solvent on it, maybe you had dificulties to start the engine by it.
Probably.
有讲华语的吗？
Please help, can you reach PCV valve without removing the intake manifold?
Or the starter motor. I don't think so.
symptoms bad sensor map please
Sign is $$60
Me my problem was solved, it was a problem of iridium candles!, Set out on oem candles and impeccable!
Its 2.0 tcdi engine ?
No.
Does a faulty MAP sensor cause stalling everyonce in a while?
Sure, it could make the engine mess up air/fuel mix enough to stall. The sort of thing where you should be looking at PIDs and fuel trims with a scan tool.
The OBD scanner said faulty MAP sensor, but according to the mechanic, faulty MAP sensor does not cause stalling, but instead pointed out my fuel pump also needs replacement. But when I replaced the MAP sensor, it has not yet stalled on me again
pinoywheelgunner The MAP was giving my car hard starts, I changed it and it's fine now.
Yes it does cause stalling. My ford focus needed a new MAF sensor and as I was breaking with the clutch pushed in the revs would drop too low and it would cut out.
Even though it's a MAF sensor on my old focus, I believe that the MAP sensor does pretty much the same thing.
@@DaVeHiLl200 I have a ranger which has the same engine as a focus. It has both.
Great video but don't use brake cleaner! Use electronics contact cleaner instead.
Use Archoil AR2810 MAF Cleaner
Please use MAF cleaner of Electrical cleaner......
MAF cleaner is too feeble, MAP sensors are not so delicate.
@@CraigsDIY I use throttle body cleaner, the map sensor would just laugh at maf cleaner. Oven pride if you have any 😉
Your not suppose to use brake cleaner on the sensor it leaves a residue CRC MAF cleaner for map and maf sensors
Good quality brake cleaner doesn't leave residue. MAF cleaner isn't likely to work well on badly fouled MAP sensors, as the latter live inside the manifold and can get coked up from EGR contaminants.
brake cleaners bad for the plastic to.why do all the manuals say don't use then.
Maybe because some HUGE company wants YOU to buy a product, another cheaper product can do.
You can also go to any chemist and buy clean alchol 70 % ALC ( for cleaning cuts and sterilising medicle stuff 'ie' sissors. )For 5 bucks, rather than the 30 bucks for a tin of spray ( thaht is not required to do this job ) seems best cost effective to me.
well m8....... NEVER USE BRAKE CLEANERS on sensors !!!! instead use contact spray !! as diy you should know that !
I have carb cleaner or IPA. which is bestest?
@@JESUSSDAD only use electric cleaner
use air sensor cleaner! only this will evaporate completely!
Use Archoil AR2810 MAF Cleaner
Waist of time 15 quid for cleaner 39 quid to buy bosch origanal general traffic UK
I'll sell you my cleaner for 14 quid
you seriously dont have to disconnect the battery to reset! The ecu keeps learning it can take a day or week but it will adapt the new values to run the engine optimal. Resetting will only learn it faster.
Am I missing something? This is about the eighth video i have seen entitled CLEANING MAP which doesn't actually show how to clean a MAP sensor1 I have a P0106 MAP sensor problem. You show diagnosing MAF sensors, which is something completely different. (However many MAF sensors you clean)
The sensor shown is a MAP not MAF sensor.
Pin out please
Makes me laugh, that sensor is only £5-£8 and how much is a can of brake cleaner? Seems a lot of aggro for a throw away part! However, very good video though
Right to repair £5-£8 really ? You dreamer... more like £30-£40
Brake Cleaner? Don't you love the internet? You can learn anything! And you won't know how wrong the information is!
