The fuel injectors supply fuel directly to the combustion chambers of the engine.
Diesel fuel pressure sensor.
This pressure signal is used by the pcm to adjust the fuel injector pulse width and duration while metering fuel to each cylinder during the combustion cycle.
Most of the potential problems in a modern common rail diesel system engine can be explained by a drop in fuel pressure or engine compression insufficient fuel supply or fuel contamination.
It can then send an electronic message to the pcm telling it precisely how much fuel needs to be released into the engine.
The fuel pressure sensor 4 provides a voltage signal to the ecm to indicated fuel rail pressures.
The pcm is the main computer of a vehicle.
In european cars the most common make is bosch.
The fuel rail sensor commonly referred to as the fuel pressure sensor is an engine management component that is commonly found on diesel and some gasoline injected vehicles.
This pressure is monitored by a pressure sensor and the difference between the nominal rail pressure value and the measured one is the input signal for the controller.
The pump maintains the rail pressure by continuously delivering fuel to the common rail.
Your common rail diesel engines is fitted with a fuel pressure sensor.
Naturally if the pressure is not according to the manufacturer s recommendations you will experience little to no response from the car s engine.
The high pressure fuel is supplied to the fuel injectors 1 through separate high pressure pipes.
The fuel pressure sensor senses the amount of fuel in the fuel rail by reading the internal pressure of the rail.
The fuel rail pressure sensor in the common rail 6 7l diesel measures the pressure of the fuel supplied to the fuel injectors.
Followed by delphi and siemens and then denso the fuel pressure sensor signals the pressure in the fuel rail to the ecu.
It is a part of vehicle s fuel system and designed to monitor the fuel pressure that is present at the fuel rail.
This sensor is an electronic device which calculates the fuel pressure and then sends this information to the pcm powertrain control module.
The fuel rail pressure sensor is responsible for analyzing the pressure of the fuel that is inside the rail of the fuel pump assembly.
