Barometric Pressure (BARO) Sensor Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Mazda CX-5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
  • Because the BARO sensor is integrated in the PCM, replacing the BARO sensor includes replacement of the PCM.
  1. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
  2. Switch the ignition ON (engine off).
  3. Measure the barometric pressure using a barometer.
  4. Verify that the measured barometric pressure and the actually measured barometric pressure (PID: BARO) input from the BARO sensor match. (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST .) (See PCM INSPECTION .)
