No


What does a temperature sensor do on a vehicle?

Modern vehicles are equipped with multiple temperature sensors. They are used to advise the engine computer and driver on the condition of the vehicle systems. Common automotive temperature sensors include coolant, transmission, ambient air temperature and engine oil.


Can you eliminate the catalytic converter on a 2004 impala?

NO. It is illegal, can cause low power and poor fuel economy as the computer tries to adjust for the improper readings from the O2 sensors.


Can you remove the catalytic converter if the sensors is before and after the cat?

No. It is not legal. The check engine light will turn on. The computer will try to correct for improper sensor readings and that will cause fuel economy and performance issues.


Why do elephants have pain and temperature sensors?

Elephants have pain and temperature sensors because, they have big tusks.


Where are temperature sensors on 1.4 corsa van?

Temperature sensors are usually locate in the water-pump housing.


What are DGA readings of a transformers?

These devices are not transformers, but toroid hall effect sensors. That is how they can sense DC.


How does ambient air temperature sensor work?

it uses outside air temperature to calculate the temperature of the air taken into the engine so that the engine can combust as efficiently as possible, obviously correlating & teaming readings from other sensors such as lambda/throttle position/manifold actual pressure/mass air flow etc.

What controls sensors?

Nothing :d Not so sure that's true. Improper voltage or short circuits can affect the sensors functions which can give false readings. Always check your circuits before replacing your sensors.


What does an O2 sensor do on a 02 Jeep Cherokee?

It monitors the exhaust for the proper air to fuel mixture of 14.7 to 1. It sends a signal to the computer to add or subtract fuel to keep this air/fuel mixture as close as it can be for maximum performance and fuel economy. All 02 sensors on all vehicles perform this function.


What are the differant types of smart sensors?

Smart sensors include environmental sensors (such as temperature and humidity sensors), motion sensors, light sensors, proximity sensors, and biometric sensors (such as fingerprint or facial recognition sensors). Each type of sensor is designed to detect specific physical characteristics or conditions and provide data for various applications.
