Default MAP low voltage ....

Should have a 5v ref. from the PCM into the MAP sensor & a ground from the PCM. Third wire is the signal from the MAP sensor to the PCM & shouldn't be 5v. I would suggest getting a pin out diagram for the PCM & check that the output, ground & input to & from the MAP sensor are going to the correct pin locations. Sounds to me like tha signal wire from the MAP sensor is run to a 5v ref. pin location on the PCM & not the MAP signal location. Maybe the ref. & signal are swapped; could also be a ground issue.

I had this happen to my 5.3 Silverado. I just replaced the sensor with a new one and the problem went away.
