Where Are the Car Engine Sensors Located?
1 Answers
The specific locations of car engine sensors are as follows: 1. The oxygen sensor is installed on the exhaust pipe to monitor the gases after combustion, thereby determining whether the engine is burning fuel efficiently. 2. The wheel speed sensor is located on the front wheel brake disc, primarily used to detect signs of wheel slip based on the vehicle's speed. 3. The coolant temperature sensor is installed next to the thermostat, converting the coolant temperature into an electrical signal to increase fuel injection or advance the ignition timing when the temperature is low. 4. The intake pressure sensor is installed near the throttle body, sensing a series of resistance and pressure changes as the engine operates under different speed loads. 5. The camshaft sensor is installed at the front or rear ends of the crankshaft or near the crankshaft counterweight, measuring engine speed and confirming the crankshaft position signal. 6. The throttle position sensor is mounted on the throttle body, providing the ECU with data to control fuel injection and ignition timing.
