Default 1999 s70 p0108

I have a 1999 S70 and it is getting a P0108. I can clear the code and on restart of car the light comes back on within 1 second. The MAP sensor looks fine and the connections are secure. I've done some research on and am hoping replacing the part will correct (especially how it comes back so quick once turned off..) Any help would be great from ones that have experienced this code and now don't have... Also on the car, the ***** on dash are sticky when its hot in the car... Can these be replaced (just the *****), cheap ?

The ***** in my car were sticky too, since I bought the car in '04. I used baking soda and water to clean them off, and they feel like brand new. I would try this out first, before buying new ones.

The P0108 is the item I need help with (mainly). Anyone successfully corrected it (by replacing the MAP sensor or some other way) ?

I have replaced the part but still exact same symptoms. Car runs fine otherwise. Wondering if the S70-R ever gets the P0108 code..
