CEL 3 Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor

Open or short in MAP sensor circuit, bad MAPS


what are your settings for the VAFC? is it going in limp mode?

are you running larger injectors?? and maybe your boost gauge is wrong and your going above 10 psi where you will throw a map cel because the vafc can only compinsate up until 10 psi.

Check your Pressure wire on your V-AFC. I had the same problem and it ended up being my pressure wire was loose. Also if you dont have a missing link or check valves, that could cause it also.
