Temperature and Manifold Absolute Pressure (TMAP) Sensor
The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor is a pressure transducer that measures the changes in intake manifold pressure
caused by engine load and speed in order to calculate fuel and spark timing requirements.
Manifold absolute pressure is the opposite of manifold vacuum. That is, MAP is low when vacuum is high (such as closed
throttle), and MAP is high when vacuum is low (such as at wide‑open throttle).
The manifold air temperature (MAT) sensor measures the charge air temperature. This information is then conducted to the
ECM for processing.
