Description
The Cummins 4921505 Genuine MAP Sensor is an OE replacement sensor on your 2001-2002 Dodge Ram 5.9 diesel. The MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensor is designed to read the air density and relay this information to the Engine Control Module (ECM) to adjust the air/fuel ratio. Common symptoms of a faulty MAP sensor include loss of power, reduced fuel economy, black smoke, as well as a check engine light.

The Cummins part number 4921505 refers to a Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor used in Cummins ISX and QSX engines, as well as some Dodge Ram trucks from 1998-2002 with 4.7L, 5.9L, 6.7L, and 8.0L engines. This sensor measures the pressure inside the intake manifold, which is then used by the engine control unit (ECU) to calculate the amount of air entering the engine and adjust the fuel mixture.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
Function:
- The MAP sensor measures the absolute pressure in the intake manifold.
- This pressure is directly related to the amount of air being pulled into the engine by the turbocharger.
- The sensor's output is then sent to the ECU, which uses this information to determine the correct fuel delivery and other engine parameters.
Importance:
- A faulty MAP sensor can lead to various issues, including poor fuel economy, rough idling, sluggish acceleration, and even a check engine light.
- The ECU relies on accurate MAP sensor readings to properly control the engine's performance.
Location:
- In the case of Dodge Ram trucks with the 24V 5.9L turbo diesel engine (2000-2002), the MAP sensor is located in the intake manifold, near cylinder #5.
- The sensor is typically screwed into the manifold and has an oval-shaped wiring harness connector.
Troubleshooting:
- If you suspect a faulty MAP sensor, you can check its voltage output using a multimeter or a scan tool.
- You can also visually inspect the sensor for damage or contamination.
- A common symptom of a faulty MAP sensor is a check engine light with a code indicating an issue with the MAP sensor.
Replacement:
- Replacing the MAP sensor is a relatively straightforward process.
- You'll need to unplug the wiring harness, unscrew the sensor from the manifold, and install the new sensor.
- Make sure to check the wiring harness connector and the sensor itself for compatibility with your vehicle.
In essence, the Cummins 4921505 MAP sensor is a critical component of the engine's fuel control system, and its proper function is essential for optimal engine performance and fuel efficiency.
