Mercury MAP / Temperature Sensor
$92.12
Genuine Mercury MAP and intake air temperature sensor for selected FourStroke outboard engines. Provides critical engine load and air temperature data to the ECM for optimum fuel delivery, performance and reliability.
The Mercury Marine 8M6012231 MAP / Temperature Sensor is a genuine Mercury OEM engine management component designed for selected Mercury FourStroke outboard engines. This combination sensor measures both manifold absolute pressure (MAP) and intake air temperature (IAT), providing critical data to the engine control module (ECM) for precise fuel delivery, ignition timing and overall engine performance.
The MAP sensor monitors intake manifold pressure, allowing the ECM to determine engine load and operating conditions. Simultaneously, the integrated temperature sensor measures incoming air temperature, enabling the ECM to make adjustments for changes in air density and environmental conditions. Together, these measurements help optimise fuel economy, throttle response, emissions performance and engine reliability.
Manufactured to Mercury Marine specifications, the 8M6012231 sensor is built to withstand vibration, moisture, temperature fluctuations and the harsh marine environment. Genuine Mercury sensors provide accurate readings, dependable operation and seamless compatibility with Mercury engine management systems.
Common symptoms of a faulty MAP/temperature sensor may include hard starting, rough idle, poor fuel economy, reduced power, erratic engine performance and engine fault codes. Replacing a failed sensor helps restore proper engine operation and performance.
Engine serial number verification is recommended before ordering to ensure compatibility with your specific Mercury application.
