MAP Sensor

I got a CEL come on and the code said it was the MAP sensor. I wanted to try and clean it before replacing it. Can someone show me a diagram or explain where exactly it is? I have a 2011 370Z, thank you!

Thank you! What do people suggest to clean it with? I was planning on using MAF sensor cleaner

i think it has a silicon diaphragm inside the MAP sensor. So not sure what you can use to clean it safely.

Is your car running ok? What is the symptoms of the MAP sensor failure?

It's running ok for the most part. There's a little bit of a hitch in acceleration on occasion but nothing big

So I'm assuming I need to take the engine cover off to get to it?

Man, this is going to make me sound like a complete noob but, with dual MAF's how do we also have a MAP sensor? Be gentle..

You only get a tease because that didn't really answer my question lol. I know we have just the one sensor, but is it used for just low level load or something? I didn't know MAF and MAP could exist together? I just think that would confuse the heck out of the ECU, especially when boost is applied. What am I missing?
