General Where is my boost pressure sensor location?

[Pizzollaman]

Hi everyone I've just joined the site as just need some info .
I've had my fiat ducato 2019 van not motorhome! And had loads of problems already with it as it's not been looked after properly.
So it's started losing power intermittently upon acceleration,say up to 50-60 mpg then I can feel the power under the accelerator go and slows down. It doesn't drop to limp mode I can still pick up to about 40 mph but pushing down on the accelerator obviously doesn't have any effect then.
So I have to pull over turn off the ignition then on again immediately and it works again for a while then same thing so on and so on.
So the mechanic plugged his diagnostic tool in and coming up with the boost pressure sensor so wanted an image of the location in my engine if anyone knows and can I fit one myself? As I can't find on YouTube a video of it.
It's annoying and dangerous to drive like this and just need it sorted.
For the price of a sensor it worth a try I'll look on eBay for one but then again eBay tells me my van is a 2017 plate and it's not it's a 19 so I can't even trust that being right.
I'm a flooring fitter and can't even have my van off the road for a day so is it something I can unscrew and put the new one on? Thank you in advance.

Is this any help or does it not look like the same engine?https://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/forum/threads/turbo-boost-sensor.276512/

Thank you greasy trucker I'll have a look and see if it's the same tomorrow and see if I can order one online thank you again.
I'll come back once I know more .

Yes let us know. We’re all here to help

Not sure how many different engine options there were at that time so could be completely different

There was only one 2.3 engine sept 16 to sept19 and was the twin EGR model. if you or aquire it there is a test procedure for it, allready pointed to.
The turbo solenoid is regarded as a regular replacement required. The solenois has a rubber diaphram and is analagous to rhe CV carb.
read this but may not be relevant.

Ducato twin EGR Engine with P0401 Code (2016 to 2019)

This does not refer to earlier single EGR systems or to later AdBlu SCR engines. Note this is a guide and not definative. It is up to you to make decissions. It is the result of my investigations of data from many contributors and discussion with...

The boost pressure sensor is actually the MAP sensor (Manifold Absolute Pressure) and is on the front of the engine on the intake manifold under the throttle body (big air hose attached to it, can't miss it). Afaik that's the location for 2.3 and 3.0 engines.
Make sure you pull it out straight or it can snap (I got a bit impatient an broke off the tip). A bit of WD-40 can loosen the O-ring that can be stuck due to soot.
I replaced mine but occasionally the error comes back for some reason, but my van doesn't go in limp mode...

That's great thanks I'll have a look this week once I get chance to stop from work thank you.

If you look at the guide in my last post it includes the position of the map sensor in the 2.3. (towards end)
the MAP sensor does not need coding to the ECM.
Am i blind but i cant see any codes mentioned. would likely be in the range P0068-0074
P0068 MAP/MAF Throttle Position Correlation
P0069 Atmospheric Pressure Sensor - Plausibility Boost pressure sensor,
P0069 Manifold Absolute Pressure Barometric Pressure Correlation
P0070 Ambient Air Temperature Sensor Circuit
P0071 Ambient Air Temperature Sensor Range/Performance
turbo solenoid would be in range
P2562
P2563
P2565

So all the work is done the fuel injectors all failed a leak test so I've had to replace them at the cost of a grand,and egr and dpf sorted just needs a stage 1 remap now but hopefully it should have fixed the problem as this vans costing a fortune all the time.

Fingers crossed you get some trouble free miles out of it now
