A P0106 DTC is being discussed. Technician A says a damaged or missing MAP sensor O-ring could be the cause. Technician B says a defective MAP sensor could be the cause. Who is right?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both technicians A and B are correct. A damaged or missing MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensor O-ring can cause air leaks affecting sensor readings, and a defective MAP sensor itself can directly cause a P0106 DTC, which relates to manifold pressure/Barometric pressure circuit range/performance problem.
