Got two codes what do I do

Hey guys my check engine light came on recently and I got the following two codes for my 97 SE:

P0105: Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Circuit

P1105: MAP/BARO Pressure Switch Solenoid Valve


Now that I know these codes what do I do to fix this? Do parts need to be replaced or are these codes just quirks of the 97? Would be grateful for any help if you have experience dealing with these codes.

Sounds like you need to change the MAP (Mass Air Flow Sensor)

I'd change the absolute pressure sensor. Both codes might clear.

Sounds like a bad MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensor. If you have the factory intake it's attached right up by the radiator on the intake itself.

The MAF (Mass Air Flow) and MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure) sensors are two completely different components and there's a huge difference in cost.

Thanks, I'm trying to find the Nissan part number for MAP sensor, anyone know it by any chance? Trying to find where I can get it and cost.
Is this part critical to the functioning of the car?

The control solenoid could be bad... but map sensor costs almost nothing on ebay

Seems to me the solenoid being bad (P1105) would cause P0105 as well. Replace the solenoid first, but before doing that check the electrical and vacuum circuits. for shots, opens, and leaks.

BTW, Nissan calls it a Boost sensor I believe.
