DTC P1228 - Barometric Pressure Below Minimum Threshold

Conditions for setting dtc P1228

Engine Running
Barometric Pressure Sensor ≤ 1.51 psi
The above must be present for a period of 128 instances/cycles or greater to trigger DTC P1228

Step

Action

Value (s)

YES

NO

1

- Key on, Engine running

- Within VCM Live, open the Baro sensor DTC Minimum parameter, does the Baro sensor parameter display 1.51 psi or less?

≤ 1.51 psi

Go to Step 2

Intermittent Issue

(Refer to Intermittent Diagnostics)

2

- Disconnect the Baro pressure sensor connector and ECU connector "C"

- Check for continuity between Baro pressure sensor low reference cavity 1 and ECU ground C12-1

- Do you have continuity?

 

Go to Step 3

Repair the circuit as necessary, locate any wires that need to be repaired or replaced

3

- Disconnect the Baro pressure sensor connector and ECU connector "C"

- Check for continuity between Baro pressure sensor 5 volt reference cavity 2 and ECU 5v C12-2

- Do you have continuity?

 

Go to Step 4

Repair the circuit as necessary, locate any wires that need to be repaired or replaced

4

- Disconnect the Baro pressure sensor connector and ECU connector "C"

- Check for continuity between Baro pressure sensor signal cavity 3 and ECU connector "C" pin 29

- Do you have continuity?

 

Go to Step 5

Repair the circuit as necessary, locate any wires that need to be repaired or replaced

5

- Disconnect the Baro pressure sensor connector and ECU connector "C"

- Check for any physical damage, corrosion, or contamination of any of the pins

- Any issues found?

 

Repair any pins and circuit as necessary.

Go to Step 6

6

- Replace the Baro Pressure Sensor

- Is the replacement complete?

 

Go to Step 7

N/A

7

- Clear any DTC from the ECU

- Turn the ignition off and wait 30 seconds

- Start the engine and operate the engine to full operating temperature

- Observe the Check Engine Light on the Menu bar in VCM Live

- After operating the engine within the test parameters, check for any store codes

- Does the engine operate without any stored DTC's?

 

System is now operational and ready to be tuned
