DTC P1129: MAP Sensor Circuit Higher Than Expected Honda Element I

Note. Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information (see GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION ).

1. Check for vacuum leaks in these parts: PCV valve PCV hose EVAP canister purge valve Throttle body Brake booster and hose Are there any vacuum leaks? YES- Repair or replace leaking parts, then go to step 9 . NO- Go to step 2 .
2. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 RPM without load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
3. Check the MAP SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the HDS. Is there more than 36.9 kPa (11.0 in.Hg, 277 mmHg) or 1.1 V held for more than 5 seconds? YES- Go to step 7 . NO- Go to step 4 .
4. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
5. Test-drive under these conditions: ECT SENSOR above 158°F (70°C) Engine speed between 1,400 and 5,700 RPM A/T in D position (M/T in 5th gear) Maintain a vehicle speed of 55-75 mph (88 - 121 km/h) for 10 seconds Decelate with throttle fully closed for at least 2 seconds
6. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P1129 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS. Does the screen indicate FAILED? YES- Go to step 7 . NO- If the screen indicates PASSED, intermittent failure, system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the MAP sensor and the ECM/PCM. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, go to step 5 and recheck.
7. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
8. Replace the MAP sensor (see «MAP SENSOR REPLACEMENT»(ref-220570-S17955277902006022000000) ).
9. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
10. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.
11. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see «ECM/PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE»(ref-220572-S08440202922006022000000) ).
12. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 RPM without load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
13. Test-drive under these conditions: ECT SENSOR above 158°F (70°C) Engine speed between 1,400 and 5,700 RPM A/T in D position (M/T in 5th gear) Maintain a vehicle speed of 55-75 mph (88-121 km/h) for 10 seconds Decelate with throttle fully closed for at least 2 seconds
14. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTC with the HDS. Are any Temporary DTCs or DTCs indicated? YES- If DTC P1129 is indicated, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the MAP sensor and the ECM/PCM, then go to step 1 . If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting. NO- Go to step 15 .
15. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P1129 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS. Does the screen indicate PASSED? YES- Troubleshooting is complete. NO- If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the MAP sensor and the ECM/PCM, then go to step 1 . If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, go to step 12 and recheck.
