Cleaning the Absolute Pressure Sensor
Model: Fiat Punto
MK 2, 188
- Years 1999-2011
Cleaning the Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor is essential as any residue on the filament could distort the values read by the sensor and thus the injection sequence by the engine management ECU. The sensor is located on the left side of the intake manifold (when facing the engine), just behind the engine oil filler cap; disconnect the connector and unscrew the securing Torx screw; pull the sensor upwards to overcome the resistance of the O-ring and clean the sensor filament with the appropriate spray (protect the sensor hole with paper to prevent impurities from entering). Once cleaned, refit the sensor by pressing it into its seat until fully seated, tightening the respective securing screw and reconnecting the connector.

Frequently Asked QuestionsHow to Bleed the Clutch on a Renault Clio?
To bleed the clutch on a Renault Clio, open the bonnet to access the components located in the engine bay: here, you will need to undo the screws that secure the battery in its housing, the intake manifold, and the coolant reservoir. This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container. by ScegliAuto More videos
