I just got a 5000$ furnace and it has a window that will display error codes than you look at the back of the door and it tells you what all the error codes mean

P0106 Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) System Performance, that is what I got when I Googled it. Not sure what it means, hopefully someone with more info will chime in. Sorry.

MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE (MAP) SENSOR TROUBLE CODES

These include P0105, P0106, P0107, P0108 & P0109, and can be set if the MAP sensor output remains too high or too low (out of range), or the MAP sensor readings do not correspond to the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) readings.

MAP sensors monitor changes in intake vacuum, which is a way of determining engine load. When engine load goes up, intake vacuum drops. Vacuum is highest at idle and drops during acceleration and wide open throttle.

The computer uses the MAP sensor's input to vary ignition timing and the fuel mixture. So a MAP sensor problem may cause drivability problems such as surging, poor fuel economy and performance.

MAP sensors either generate a voltage or frequency signal as engine vacuum (load) changes. Vacuum leaks can cause problems with the sensor's reading, so check for leaks and the sensor's vacuum connection to the engine.

How to check: a MAP sensor's voltage or frequency output should change when engine vacuum (load) changes. If you don't see a change, the sensor is probably bad and should be replaced.

Smile Re: Error code p0106

I brought it to a mechanic it turned out to be :
1.Map Baro sensor
2.timing belt
3.and apparently the previous owner messed around with the idle adjust screw and broke
4.half my throttle body.
$1,748.62 in repairs

but its finally fixed
