Default m.a.p sensor

hi

is there any way to check if a m.a.p sensor is failing, ive got a sec monitor fitted to my stage 3 2wd saff cos and its started to show a fault with the m.a.p sensor and also coolant temp fault.

are these two faults related? what damage can the m.a.p sensor do?

cheers

What damage can it do? It can destroy an engine by overfueling or underfueling.
This applies to both the sensors.
Are the faults relayed? Possibly, if there's a problem with the wiring or the 5 volt power supply (which means a defective ecu). But then I would also expect errors on the Intake air temperature and Throttle position.
Errors are generated when the signal is below 0,05Volt or above 4,95Volt - this also applies to both sensors.
