Use the thin tips from the DVOM and insert the "+" probe into the sleeve
around the middle MAP terminal. That's how I used to (and still do) test
them.

Hi, I'm trying to diagnose poor gas milage on my 95 dak 3.9 and I found
these instructions on the Mitchell Repair Info. DVD at school:

it says where the MAP sensor is... I check the voltage from the center
termainal with the ignition switch on I should get 4.0-5.0 volts with the
engine runing it should be 1.5-2.1 volts. The test must be performed with
the connector in place. How can I test the voltage of the center terminal
if there is no way to get the dvom probes into the wire?

Thanks,
Geoff
