MAP Sensor Issue?

For some reason my AEM is seeing 5v on the MAP sensor at all times. Even with the sensor unplugged. Any ideas? Would like to start the car soon.

OK I did a little more troubleshooting. Looks like the ECU has a pull up resistor to bring it up to 5V if the sensor is disconnected. I prodded with the multimeter and I am geting 5V on the signal wire but no where else. It's also seems like I do not have a ground or 5V being supplied to the MAP. Any thoughts?

Looks like I missed a blue connector by the ECU. I have ground and 5V now. Just need to fix the connector.

There is a little blue connector under the dash by the ECU, Make sure it is plugged in. LOL.

Thanks, found that connector. The car fired up. I now have a lot of learning to do. The AEM is pretty complex.

I really helps to understand what each section does before you tune. it will save on time in the long run and you can do it correctly the first time. The help file works really well. make sure you know where the templates are including all of the advanced templates. fell free to ask questions if you are unsure of certain things.
