314 7 ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEMS DIAGNOSTICS
BAP Sensor (Barometric Absolute Pressure)
Figure 383 Function diagram for the BAP sensor
The function diagra m fo r the BAP sensor includes the
following:
• BAP sensor
• Electronic Control Module (ECM)
• Injection Driver Module (IDM)
• Fuel injector
• Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)
• Variable Geometry Turbocharger (VG T )
• ENGINE lamp (amber)
Function
The BAP sensor is a variable capacitance sensor
and is located in the cab. The ECM s upplies a 5
V r ef eren ce s ign a l which the BAP sensor use s to
produce a linear analog voltage signal that indicates
pressure.
The primary function of the BAP sensor is to provide
a feedback signal to the ECM to adjust timing and
fuel quantity. The ECM monitors the BAP signal to
determine altitude, adjust timing, fuel quantity, and
inlet air he ater operation.
