P1108 Cadillac Code - BARO To MAP Sensor Circuit Comparison Too High
Quick Answer
The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor responds to pressure changes in the intake manifold. Common causes include Faulty Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor, Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor harness is open or shorted, Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor circuit poor electrical connection. Severity is High - diagnose this code as soon as possible. Driving is not recommended if the warning light is flashing, the engine runs poorly, or safety-related symptoms are present.

Code P1108 Cadillac Description
- 5-volt reference circuit
- Low reference circuit
- MAP sensor signal circuit
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) supplies 5 volts to the MAP sensor on the 5-volt reference circuit. The PCM also provides a ground on the low reference circuit. The MAP sensor provides a signal to the PCM on the MAP sensor signal circuit which is relative to the pressure changes in the manifold. The PCM should detect a low signal voltage at a low MAP, such as during an idle or a deceleration. The PCM should detect a high signal voltage at a high MAP, such as the ignition is ON, with the engine OFF, or at a wide open throttle (WOT). The MAP sensor is also used in order to determine the barometric pressure (BARO). This occurs when the ignition switch is turned ON, with the engine OFF. The BARO reading may also be updated whenever the engine is operated at WOT. The PCM monitors the MAP sensor signal for voltage outside of the normal range.
