There are different sensors on the vehicle, and they play different roles. Car owners want to further understand the sensors on the vehicle, so what are the types of car sensors?
1. Throttle position sensor: The throttle position sensor is usually located on the throttle of a vehicle, and its main function is to detect the opening and closing of the throttle.
2. Intake pressure sensor: It can detect the pressure in the intake manifold based on the engine load, convert it into a signal and send it to the trip computer as a reference for determining the fuel injection volume of the vehicle.
3. Crankshaft position sensor: The main function is to check the vehicle’s crankshaft angle signal, engine speed signal, and dead center signal. The above signals are transmitted to the driving computer, and the engine will calculate the optimal ignition time.
4. Air flow sensor: It converts the inhaled air into an electrical signal and sends it to the vehicle’s on-board computer to determine the fuel injection status of the vehicle.
5. Oxygen sensor: divided into front oxygen sensor and rear oxygen sensor. The front oxygen sensor checks the oxygen content after combustion of the mixture, while the rear oxygen sensor checks the oxygen content after purification of the three-way catalytic converter.
