look at the air filter box and follow the big hose to the throttle body. somewhere on that hose (the biggest one) is a piece with several wires to it . that is the map sensor. be shure not to touch the spring looking things as this will kill it.
The sensor that you describe is the MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor, NOT the MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensor.
Per Ford, my 1991 Ranger XLT 3.0L v6 EFI truk does NOT have a MAP supposedly because it has a MAF. I suspect his 1990 Ranger also lacks the MAP.
The above is correct, that is the MAF sensor described by the first . On my 1990 Ranger 2.9L 4x4 Automatic, The MAP sensor is located on the firewall. It is on the passenger side of the distributor and towards the top. It is actually inside a compartment in the firewall. All you are able to see is the wiring connector that plugs into it. There is also a larger vacuum line that plugs into it.
My truck appears to have both a MAF and a MAP
I have also heard that there are some rangers out there that were made for California emissions regulations and are not equipped with either the MAF or MAP. Its either one of the other but I cant remember which one.
Front of the manifold. 3-wires. (Orange, Black&Blue, and Green&Red)
The Dodge Neon does not have a MAF (Mass Air Flow) Sensor. It does, however, have a MAP (Mass Air Pressure) sensor located on the intake manifold between the two left runners.
MAP sensor going bad will cause that exact symptom, try unplugging the MAP sensor, if the vehicle will run with it unplugged then you know the MAP sensor is bad. My 88 Dodge Aries did the exact same thing.
You can find the map sensor behind the passenger side dashboard. You will need to remove the glove box in order to access the map sensor.
Replace sensor and clear code.
The purpose of a MAP sensor is to monitor the pressure of the intake manifold by automatically adjusted the amount of air or fuel being taken in. Symptoms of a bad MAP sensor include poor gas mileage, idling problems, and fouled spark plugs.
dodge didnt put a 5.7 in there dakotas. you either have a 4.7 or a 5.9. is its the 5.9 its on the side of the throttle body.
On the front of the throttle body.
The Map Sensor mounts to the drivers side of the intake manifold plenum.
No there not they are 2 different parts

It does not have a MAF, it uses a MAP which is on the throttle body.It does not have a MAF, it uses a MAP which is on the throttle body.

Change in MAP sensor reading beyond limits.
That year Dakota does not have a MAF sensor. It does have a MAP(manifold absolute pressure) sensor though. That is what you are looking for. It should be on top of the air filter hose to the throttle body or around that area.

where is the map sensor located on an 08 charger
