Crankcase Pressure Sensor

The crankcase pressure sensor measures the vacuum in the positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) system. A change in the PCV system vacuum greater than a calibrated threshold indicates the PCV system is disconnected and will set a DTC. The crankcase pressure sensor is located in the PCV system hose between the intake air system air cleaner and the engine crankcase PCV inlet.
