    Diode Problem

    Clamped my MAP today. It threw 2 codes. Po237, Po106. Anyone here ever had this problem? I ordered Zener 4.7 diodes on ebay, I forgot what watts.

    Re: Diode Problem

    why dont you find out what those codes mean before asking, theres a few possibilities just blindly throwing shit out here since you didnt do the needed research:

    you installed it backwards
    you shorted your map sensor
    you burned out the diode(wrong wattage)

    pick, one or any combination of the above three and you probablly have your answer.

    Was hoping you would chime in.
    I honestly figured that I burnt the diode out. I know i installed it correctly. I'm going to have to reorder a new set.

    Po237 - map sensor, low input
    Po106 - map sensor open circuit....
