Does anyone know where I can find this information?

The MAP and the Baro are one in the same.
TheTPS is mounted on the throttle body

if the baro sensor and map sensor are the same, then why does the coding give two different code numbers. 13 is shown as a map sensor and 61 is shown as a baro sensor. I have had both replaced in the past, so there must two.

If you bought 2 separate sensors, then you got ripped off.

Here is what the diagnostic codes say:
• 13* MAP sensor or vacuum line may not be working
• 61 "Baro" sensor open or shorted

Is this the same sensor that is giving two different codes?
I'm really confused because the mechanic told me that it was two different sensors.

Another question, the diagram for the TPS does not look like my car engine at all. I think this must be way over my head.

Thanks.
