Citroen SM MAP sensor 0280100036 not working

So looking at your picture in comparison, I believe it is no original potting and it is mistuned. I know someone in Switzerland who has such a sensor. Unfortunately customs is an issue for both his and your MAP sensor. Otherwise I would have offered to take a sample reference and adjust yours accordingly.

So if anyone in Germany has a SM MAP sensor 0 280 100 036 that he could borrow for a reference measurment, please let me know. It would really help Rhys.

Auf Deutsch: Hat irgend jemand einen 0 280 100 036 Druckfühler, den ich kurz vermessen könnte, um Rhys in Australien helfen zu können?

Hi Volker + Norbert,

Yes, it would seem that this MAP sensor has been raped (using the term in the correct context now Volker), and re-sealed.

A booby-trap to steal precious hours of diagnostic time that I'll never get back.

But all is starting to make sense now.

It would be nice if another MAP sensor did materialise.

Rhys

Hi Rhys,

Chris from Switzerland has Xmas gift for you . He has the requested MAP sensor and will send it to me for reference measurements.

Hi Volker

I like this Chris fella - and a MAP sensor is as good, as a Xmas gift ever gets.

I look foreward to hearing when it arrives..... and it being measured.

Please advise when I need to send funds to someone.

I wish the best over the festive season to all your forum members.

Regards,

Rhys

Hi Rhys,

Chris will send it to me 2nd week of January. Could you - after removing your potting - post a picture of the look inside your MAP sensor? That would give a hint whether yours is complete. After I measure Chris sensor, I will also be able to judge whether I can retune another one like 011 to fulfill the specs.

Best regards,
Volker

Hi Volker,

Not the best photo - but all that my phone can achieve.

Rhys
