What are the symptoms of a faulty automotive differential pressure sensor?
1 Answers
The symptoms of a faulty automotive differential pressure sensor are: 1. The engine malfunction indicator light will illuminate and limit engine torque; 2. The signals collected by the engine control unit will be erroneous, leading to inaccurate calculated air intake and causing abnormal engine operation. An automotive differential pressure sensor is used to measure the pressure difference between two points, typically measuring the pressure difference before and after a device or component. The measured pressure directly acts on the sensor's diaphragm, causing a micro-displacement proportional to the pressure, which changes the sensor's capacitance value. An integrated circuit then converts and outputs a corresponding measurement signal within the standard pressure range.
