P2227 on Buick

Barometric Pressure Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance

Minor1 Buick model affectedSystem: Fuel & Air Metering

P2227 on Buick vehicles indicates barometric pressure sensor "a" circuit range/performance. Au7o has documented this code across 1 Buick model — most commonly on Encore. Generic code. The barometric pressure sensor 'A' is connected but its reading is out of range or doesn't track expected atmospheric pressure — the value is absent, inconsistent, or implausible versus other pressure sensors and known altitude.

Common Causes of P2227

  • •Drifting/aging BARO or MAP sensor
  • •Vacuum or pressure reference problem
  • •High-resistance wiring/connector
  • •Sensor contamination
  • •Intermittent reference voltage

  • Charge-Air Cooler Icing Can Cause Cold-Weather Power Loss (17-NA-221)2016-2018

    GM Bulletin 17-NA-221 covers specified 2016-2018 Encore vehicles with the LE2 engine, through the September 18, 2017 build breakpoint. At 0°F (-18°C) or below, ice can accumulate in the charge-air cooler and restrict airflow, causing power loss, hesitation, stalling, tailpipe smoke, an oil odor or MIL during the first 10-15 minutes of operation.
