3 bar map sensor

Iff that data is correct then that can be done.

First convert the kPa to inHg by multiplying it by 0.2953

11 kPa= 3.4283 inHg,  307 kPa= 90.657 inHg

Ford uses MAP = Volts * Slope - Offset.

so 90.657 = 4.75 * Slope - Offset (1)

and 3.483 = 0.25 * Slope - Offset (2)

Subtract equation (2) from equation (1)

87.174 = 4.5 Slope

19.372 = Slope.

Substituting back gives

90.657 = 4.75 * 19.372 - Offset

-1.36 = Offset, => Offset = 1.36

Just Confirming the units is inHg and that auF0037 is 19.424 & auF0038 is 1.607

The standard units are inHG. Turbo and non turbo offsets are inverted. One is negative, I don't know why Ford did that but make sure you use the correct value if you are using turbo logic enabled or not.

guys im not wuite understanding your  symbles here 

im trying to set up a 4 bar boost sensor 

i think the black text is right   just  not sure what to do with the red  text 

First convert the kPa to inHg by multiplying it by 0.2953

24 kPa= 7.0871 inHg,  400 kPa= 118.1199 inHg

Ford uses MAP = Volts * Slope - Offset.

so  118.1199 = 4.75 * Slope - Offset (1)

and 7.0871 = 0.25 * Slope - Offset (2)

Subtract equation (2) from equation (1)

111.6928 = 4.5 Slope

24.8206 = Slope.

Substituting back gives

118.1199 = 4.75 * 24.8206 - Offset

-1.36 = Offset, => Offset = 1.36

* means multiply, / means divide, - means minus, + means add, = means equals. The arrow thing can get in the bin, you could just as well put the phrase "Offset = 1.36" on the next line and not use the arrow.

To calculate the offset from this equation you  do this.

4.75 * 24.8206 = 117.89785 + offset

118.1199 - 117.89785 = offset

offset = 0.22205

I didn't go through and check all your maths etc, I just showed you how to do the part you are asking about.

thanks puff it was the arrow thing that ws getting me confused  cheers

For those that dont know the arrow above means "logically implies that". Basic year 11 maths. You use it when showing your working with maths

sorry i didnt go to year 11 lol  and if i did it was 30 year ago

Haha you learn something new every day.

I only learnt that fridge seals have a magnet in them a couple of weeks ago when I fixed my fridge. 42 years young here 😉

I did an engineering degree and didn't even know that. Either that or I've forgotten more than I realise.
