Trouble with MAP sensor on my 2010 Hybrid

Last night, my 2010 hybrid drove fine, but today it's jerking, losing power especially at idle in gas mode and nearly stalls. I scanned and got code P0106, likely pointing to the MAP sensor. I've been struggling to locate it. If anyone can share its exact location or better, a picture or diagram, I'd deeply appreciate it.
 
I don't have a diagram but the MAP sensor is typically located on the intake manifold itself for your 2010 Hybrid.. it's a small plastic sensor with a wire harness clipped to it.
Look on the top or side of the intake manifold, often closer to the throttle body
A good tip is to trace the vacuum lines leading to the manifold since sometimes the sensor is mounted on one of those but you might need a mirror to see it clearly.
Once you find it, it's usually just one bolt holding it in.

I think that's a common problem with older hybrids! I'd also go with @ultim8escape's instructions. Before, I would also just trace the wiring harness that's run to the intake manifold. It's usually part of that loom. You can get a replacement pretty cheap online, but make sure it's the right part number. Good luck, hope that gets you back on the road!

This is my answer too, and you might need to move or remove the air intake duct to get clear access. Double check the connector and vacuum line while youre there
