What are the sensors in Skoda Octavia?
1 Answers
Octavia vehicle sensors are input devices for the car's computer system. They convert various operating condition information during the car's operation, such as speed, temperature of various media, and engine operating conditions, into electrical signals and transmit them to the computer to ensure the engine operates in the optimal state. The main sensors and their locations are as follows: 1. Oxygen sensor: Installed on the exhaust pipe, it monitors the post-combustion gases to determine whether the engine combustion is sufficient and whether the mixture is too lean or too rich. 2. Wheel speed sensor: It primarily collects the car's rotational speed to detect any signs of wheel slip. 3. Coolant temperature sensor: Usually located near the thermostat, it converts the coolant temperature into an electrical signal. At low temperatures, it increases fuel injection or advances the ignition timing angle, while at high temperatures, it prevents knocking by retarding the ignition timing angle. 4. Intake pressure sensor: Typically installed near the throttle valve, as the name suggests, it senses a series of resistance and pressure changes according to the engine's varying speed and load, converting them into voltage signals for the ECU to adjust fuel injection and ignition timing angles.
