hello....I recently purchased a 2003 s60 to replace my 97 960 wagon, I have a question I have on several occassions had the check engine light come on and the code was for a map sensor....I called the dealer today and they tell me that my car does not have a map sensor and that they thought it was the fuel pressure sensor...I have 2 questions please:
1) could this check engine light have come on because i put gas in my car and did not tighten the cap properly???? 2) could it in fact be what the dealship is telling me and it be a fuel pressure sensor and not a map sensor?? I can tell you this that last time I cleared the code it did not come on again till today and I had just put gas in my car last night?? I am puzzled as my 97 960 did not have all the bells and whistles that the s60 has so any and all input would be apprecaited!!! Thank----> Carlton

 

Does anybody kno where d fuel pressure sensor is on S60s? I think there's a MAP sensor on these cars and it's the sensor by the fan shroud (did I spell it right)

 

I had a code pulled today on my s60, it was the MAP sensor along with a intake code and a cat code. I think they all start with the MAP sensor. I cannot seem to locate it on the engine so I joined here in hopes of some added light.

 

This is what the MAP Sensor looks like http://www.ipdusa.com/Volvo-S60/Engi...-394-395-5199/
and it looks like its only on 2000-02 S60
and this is the Fuel pressure sensor http://www.ipdusa.com/Volvo-S60/Engi...-394-395-5044/ The Fuel Pressure Sensor is located on the Left end of the fuel rail at least with a Pic you know what you are looking for.GL
There is also a recall on this for some owners http://www.lemonauto.com/complaints/volvo/s60.htm

 

thanks mys6t for the information....I still am puzzled, it looks like i have a map sensor which is on the right side of the cars engin...by the air intake...however as you stated and the dealer has told me the 03 s60 DOES NOT have a map sensor just a fuel sensor....I have sent information to the people at the lemonauto.com website and they are reviewing my case and will get in touch with me so again thank you for your help it is appreciated....GOOOOO Pats!!!!

 

Thanks for the input as well. I am sending my car to the dealership this Mon. They believe it is the ETM that needs to replaced. They are also going to replace my fuel-pump due to these recalls. Glad I looked on here before allowing friendly mechanic Joe to work on my car.
