Red face S430 Love Hate Relationship, anyone know anything about Error code P0106 (MAP)

Hey there my name is Portia, I'm 26 years old and I've had a lot of cars for someone my age; and although the Mercedes has been one of my most favorites out of three 300zx's (1990-92), 97 honda ciivi, 2000 Volvo C70, 2000 4x4 Dodge Ram, 1989 Mercedes 189 E, this one is THE MOST EFFING DIFFICULT TO WORK ON, at least for me, because 1.) It's intimidatingly beautiful and I really don't want **** with something I don't understand, 2.) My dad lives out of state now and he used to be here to guide me, or at least start me off when I'd enter into these DIY missions.

I just had my water pump replaced by a non-mercedes shop I trust, but my CEL (Check engine) is back on; the error code is P0160 for the MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure)

If anyone can help me fix this I'd be incredibly grateful.

Thanks

FYI

If you have the error code correct?

P0160 O2 Sensor Circuit No Activity

This code shows a dead sensor or broken wire.

This code is set when an excessively low or high voltage from the sensor is received by the ECM.

I can't give you further data without the VIN#.
