Function, pressure sensor
|
The pressure sensor capacitance between the metal plating of the discs is changed based on the pressure. A circuit integrated in the sensor converts the capacitance to an analogue voltage.
Based on the pressure in the charge air pipe, the pressure sensor yields a proportional voltage to control module pin 40(A).
