Question BARO Question - E99

Hi All,

New to posting here and am looking for some help. I have an Early 99, 7.3 CCLB DRW and I am having trouble trying to monitor the BARO parameter. I have tried using both Torque Pro and Forscan with no luck. I set up the parameter and get no reading - no faults, no data.
My searching says that the E99 should have a Baro sensor located under the dash. Later models have the Baro sensor integrated into the PCM (I think) rather than a separate sensor.
Can anyone tell me where this sensor might be located or supply a picture to help me try to find it or confirm that it is missing?

Thanks for your help.
Terry

Remove the knee bolster cover (plastic panel under the steering column) and look for a Bosch relay-sized black plastic cube with a round 4-cavity 3-wire connector dangling below the steering column.

Thanks Cletus12r,

I have looked and did not see anything just hanging - there is a black cube mounted toward on a bracket closer to the pass side so that might be it. Need to take another look.

I've been wondering about that to. How do you know if that sensor is bad or not? Towing my toy hauler up your way this summer Cody and would like it to work in the mountains. That or I have to get some high altitude tunes. I've noticed in the pass in Wyoming hunting at low speeds with a lite trailer it can smoke pretty bad on a mod stock tune or 60 HP tune. Other wise no problems. Hate that. Always wondered if a later PCM would cure that?
