hey guys trying to istall edge today and cant seem to get the wiring harness from the boost sensor and dont want to wreck the plastic ,assuming this is the MAP sensor SHOULD IT JUST UNPLUG easy or does it have clips retaining it? any help would be great cause its messin with my head now.

 

That looks like the MAP, There is a red tab you need to pop out and then you can press the clip to release. Easiest done with belly laying on the valve cover from the front if your right handed it can be tight.

Once the tab is released a quick pinch and wiggle and it will fall right off. Look at your new connection it should have the same red tab.

Good luck.

 

well the way i understand the instructions it says to remove the wire harness from the sensor so i was figuring i had to remove the black plastic wire harness from the grey sensor, it seems the edge plugs into the map sensor then the old harness into the edge . might be easier to unplug the map then the harness--

 

I got confused by your last post. Did you get it working? Yes your edge plugs into the map on the block, the sensor does not need to be removed from the block, and then the supplied wires plug into the stock MAP plug in a chain.

HTH if your still working but hopefully your out enjoying your new found power.

 

nah i cant seem to get the wire harness unpluged from the sensor and is startinf to get under my skin, whats the trick, it seems as it should just unplug and i dont want to use to much brute force and ignorance and break it.ill try again in the morning when im not so steamed at it.

 

well i got the black plastic clip off the back of the grey sensor but now it seems to that the 3 wires are in a white plastic plug and im not sure if its just tight or its not to be removed, it looks like its in there tight and i dont want to get rippin on the wires and wreck the whole shebang, whats a new map sensor worth anyway?

 

well behind the black plastic clip its not a white plug but a rubber seal, do i have to remove the whole sensor to get this thing unpluged or does it even unplug, this thing is really startin to pis^ me off.

 

Sounds to me like you pulled the connector apart. I just pulled the clip and the plug comes off. You plug the Edge's connector onto the sensor and plug the plug your trying to remove into the harness. If you having this much trouble, it sounds like the connector may have melted. I've pulled mine off recently to clean the sensor with no trouble. I don't know what your running into but it's not right.

 

just talk to dodge dealship and they say i dont have a map sensor on this truck they say that this gizmo is a turbo pressure sensor? now im gettin really confused?

 

can someone with a 2002 and an edge installed send me a pic of there map sensor installed with there edge, cause even the parts i have with my chip are not looking like there going to fit, pic at the start of the post where would and how would the edge install to this, there is a smaller conector behind the one in the photo but is only 2 bladed and doesnt fit any of my connectors, really inside out now.

 

The second sensor is probably your IAT. The one in the photo IS the map sensor. If the plugs don't look the same, it's probably because you ordered the wrong chip.

MAP and turbo boost sensor are one in the same. MAP = manifold absolute pressure, or a pressure sensor.

Take a photo of how the plug looks now and we can tell you whether or not you pulled the plug apart on accident.

Hope that helps,
Shawn

 

Its a nuckle buster & an arm twister. If you haven't figured it out yet try this. Look at the plug on the edge it may be the same thing. Note there is a little red slide (at least on the map plug) use a 2"+/- metal screwdrive tip reach in and push that slide toward your left. Plug should come right off no resistance.
You can see the map easly- not so the IAT which is just under the engine hoister.

 

Wish I would have read this earlier and I would have snapped a pic for ya, I just took off my ez on my 02. Sorry to say it took less than 30 seconds. I just lift up on the red tab away from the sensor the gray connector you press in and wiggle off. The Edge then plugs into the map/boost sensor and then the stock sensor wire plugs into the new harness. The data link is just below and in front of the fuel filter. Your data plug should be a 3 flat plug, remove the cap and plug the other end of the harness into that. I'm not sure if your tapping the wire or not so I'll leave that to someone else.


Do snap us a pic of what your doing, you do not remove any wires from the plug ends. If they don't fit your edge is for the wrong year.

Good luck.

 

wellll whollllllyyyy boyssss got this thing almost runnin over tightened the banjo bolt and broke itand didnt tap the vp44 but this still should come with a radar detector?anyway thanks for thr help the tab was broke off the map sensor and couldnt get it loose just broke it the rest of the way and it slipped off. was on the old ladies(sh^t list) but now she drives it and out of the dog house.

THANKS AGAIN!!!!
