About Hybrid Vehicle Battery Management System (HVBMS): On average Hybrid batteries like the Toyota Prius battery for example contain 200 1.2 volt Ni-MH cells. These cells make up the 240V DC battery that hybrids use to power the electric motor. More than 90%...
What does the barometric sensor do? Engines use a combination of air and fuel which is ignited by the spark plugs to create combustion. These series of combustion’s turn the crankshaft and camshaft and allow your vehicle to run. The barometric sensor (also known...
About Oxygen Sensors (O2 Sensors): Most everyday combustion engines work by exploding a combination of air and fuel. Oxygen sensors are used to create the optimal fuel efficiency in your car. Oxygen sensors constantly detect the oxygen content of a car’s...
About Turbine Speed Sensors: Turbine speed sensors use magnets to determine the revolutions per minute (RPM) of your engine. They produce a small AC value which is used in automatic cars, power-train control modules (PCM) to help determine when to change gear....
About Knock Sensors: In order to operate correctly, combustion engines explode a mixture of fuel at accurate intervals. The purpose of a knock sensor is to detect whether the engine is pre-igniting or detonating and prematurely sparking and igniting this...
About Mass Air Flow Sensors: A Mass airflow sensor or meter is an important component in fuel injector systems, designed to help with fuel injection. The mass airflow sensor is positioned on the air intake and measures the density of air coming in through the...
