The P0106 trouble code indicates an issue with the range or performance of the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) or barometric pressure sensor. This code typically points to problems with the sensor responsible for measuring the pressure within the intake manifold or the atmospheric pressure, affecting the engine’s performance.
Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Range/Performance
Code symptoms P0106.
1. Decreased engine performance.
2. Rough idling or stalling.
3. Reduced fuel efficiency.
This code is common in brands such as:: Chevrolet, Renault, Ford, Toyota, Nissan, Mercedes Benz, Honda.
Causes of the code P0106.
1. Faulty manifold absolute pressure (MAP) or barometric pressure sensor.
2. Wiring or connector issues within the sensor circuit.
3. Problems with the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Code Solutions P0106.
1. Inspect and replace the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) or barometric pressure sensor if it is faulty.
2. Check and repair any wiring or connector issues in the sensor circuit.
3. If ECM issues are suspected, consult a qualified technician for diagnosis and potential reprogramming or replacement.
