Brian, I posted about it and no one knows what it is. It must not be a big deal because a lot of poeople have it and it doesnt affect their cars negatively. It has something to do with the afc probably. I forgot to mention in the above post that the two cars (yours and loeric's) have afc's and i dont. Don't worry about it.

Code 61 was originally "Open or Shorted Barometric Sensor". I had this code too and it was a huge pain in this ass since the 420a doesn't have the MAS w/ baro sensor in it. On the 420a this code is the MAP sensor. It's located on the top of the intake plenium on the passenger side. You can't miss it!

Mine was shorting out and caused hestations very regularly. Replaced it ($69) and everything works great.
