Component Location
General Description

Pressure Sensor is installed within Solenoid Valve Assay. Its role is to measure the pressure of the inner solenoid valve assay. As this sensor is pressured from the outside, an electrostatic capacity changes and this causes output's voltage to change. This sensor's output is analog signal which is in proportional to power supply and the control unit( ECS ECU ) recognizes the pressure value as a percentage of signal value against power supply.



DTC Description

The ECS ECU monitors the pressure sensor's signal and if it is out of normal range, this DTC is set.
