Where is the Cruze oil pressure sensor located?
1 Answers
The oil pressure sensor of the Cruze is installed on the right side of the water pump. The engine oil pressure sensor monitors the oil pressure. If the oil pressure is too low, a warning light will appear on the dashboard to alert the driver. Here is some relevant information: 1. Minimum pressure: The minimum oil pressure for the Cruze should not exceed 130 kPa, meaning the acceptable range is between 130 and 350 kPa. However, the measurement should be taken at a water temperature of 80°C, and the normal standard value should be around 250 kPa. 2. Function: Pressure sensors are primarily mechanical devices that indicate pressure through the deformation of elastic elements. However, these structures are large in size and heavy in weight, and they cannot provide electrical output. With the development of semiconductor technology, semiconductor pressure sensors have emerged. They are characterized by small size, light weight, high accuracy, and good temperature characteristics. Especially with the advancement of MEMS technology, semiconductor sensors are becoming more miniaturized, with low power consumption and high reliability.
