SERVICE INFORMATION
Got a vehicle in your shop with DTC P1106 (BARO sensor range/performance problem)? Before you start troubleshooting, first check for a clogged engine air inlet. Leaves, paper, plastic bags, or a dirty or wet air cleaner element can cause an air restriction, which will cause this DTC to set.
To fix this problem, clear out any debris from the engine air inlet or replace the air cleaner element.
