Welcome to your canik today here in the mechanic we got our 2013 Ford Fusion and we’re gonna check the check engine light to see what’s wrong. We’ve got our OBD2 scanner hooked up to the OBD port and we’re gonna hit enter to start the diagnostic to figure out what the problem is. It says that our light is on, so we’re gonna read the stored code and it’s the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor.
We’re gonna start the car and see if we can observe the symptoms. The idle is a little fluctuating, which can lead to bad fuel mileage. To replace the MAP sensor, it’s right down attached to the intake manifold and it’s just one bolt and a clamp to undo. After replacing it, make sure to clear the code to ensure the problem is fixed.
Back in the car, with the key in the on position and the scanner still hooked up, we’re going to erase the code, start the car, and ensure everything is working correctly. That’s how you replace your MAP sensor on your Ford Fusion.
Thanks for watching mechanic where you can be the mechanic
