Automobile sensors are the input devices of the automobile computer system, which can keep the engine in the best condition, and there are many kinds of automobile sensors. Let's take a look at the working principles and functions of automotive sensors.

There are many types of automotive sensors, the common ones are:

•Intake pressure sensor

• Coolant Temperature Sensor
• Throttle position sensor
• Crankshaft position sensor
• Oxygen Sensor
• Intake pressure sensor

It can reflect the change of absolute pressure in the intake manifold.
The absolute pressure in the intake manifold is measured according to the state of the engine, and it will be converted into electrical signals and speed signals to the computer.
Throttle position sensor

Used to measure the opening angle of the throttle valve.

Generally installed on the throttle valve, the lever mechanism and the throttle valve reflect the condition of the engine.

Crankshaft position sensor

Detect crankshaft and engine speed.

Input the signal to the computer so that the computer can send instructions according to the firing order of the cylinders.

Oxygen Sensor

Detect the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas.
Under certain conditions, the difference in oxygen concentration between the inner and outer sides of the zirconium oxide produces a potential difference.
