Default HELP !! Fault Code 45, What's This??!!

Hi,

I have a 94' wrx and it's been playing up recently. I did the (black plug)ecu reading procedure and got code 45, Pressure Sensor.
Problem is, I haven't a clue what this is and what it does !!! Can anyone shed some light on it for me ???
Many Thanks

Not sure how to test if it's faulty or whether it's wiring etc.
