How do I fix an instant pot C6 error?

The C6 error code on an Instant Pot is caused by the pressure sensor not working properly. This can be caused by a few different things, such as the pressure sensor being dirty or the pressure cooker not being properly vented. If the pressure sensor is dirty, it can be cleaned with a cotton swab dipped in vinegar. If the pressure cooker is not properly vented, make sure the venting knob is in the correct position and that there is nothing blocking the venting hole.
