Got the first code on the X...

Today I went out to finish the christmas shopping, on my way back I realised that I have a code on the dashboard ( yellow pictogram )it is located on the left side of the dash board. I stop at a local shop but the shop owner told me it might be related to the EVAP, they were closing the shop for the holidays so they couldn't take a look. I have an OBDII scanner, but I never used it on the X5 ( I used it numerous time on my Maxima ) does the OBDII plug is located under the steering box ? If not can any one tell me where it is located.

Thanks

AA

Its located directly above where your left knee would be while driving the vehicle- there is a little cover that swings open to give access.

I hooked up the scanner and I got PO 103, I checked in the book and " Mass or Volume Circuit High input " is what it says. I have no clue what it could be, but my friend was telling me that sometime people get this code whenever they fill up the gas while the engine is running, wich i dont. Yesterday at one point I started the engine but I guess I didn't give enough time so the engine started but shut it off, so I crank it up again and then the engine started no problem I believe I got the code just after that. Does anyone one had this code before and would possibly know to what it is related ? I erased the code, but I'll see if it come back later today. The truck is running fine but I like to keep my vehicle in the best running condition.
