MAP sensor. Manifold Absolute Pressure. This part is for emmsision controls. For your vehicle as described it should be mounted on the intake manifold usually front driver side.

Before replacing it though, clear the codes on your computor by disconncecting the battery for about 20 minutes. After reconnecting and starting again, take it for a run for about 20 minutes.
Then recheck to see if the code is there again.
If yes, go ahead and replace the part with A BRAND NEW ONE.

Good luck. Please post a reply if it works out or you need further help.
