What causes a p0108 code on a vacuum manifold?

Potential causes of a P0108 code: Leak in vacuum supply line to MAP sensor Short on reference voltage wire from PCM Open in ground circuit to MAP A good way to diagnose if the MAP sensor is to blame would be to compare the KOEO (key on engine off) MAP sensor reading on a scan tool with the Barometric pressure reading.

What are the symptoms of a p0108 DTC code?

Symptoms of a P0108 DTC code may include: MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) will likely be on Engine may run poorly Engine may not run at all Fuel mileage may decrease Presence of black smoke at exhaust

How does the p0238 turbocharger boost sensor work?

Zero boost pressure equals about .5 volts, maximum boost reads about 4.5 volt. DTC P0238 is set when the PCM sees a boost pressure voltage greater than 4 volts at a time when no boost is being commanded. When P0238 is set the PCM will turn on the check engine light and substitute a generic value for actual boost pressure and ignore the sensor.
