id0140s1006000
Purpose/Function
• Detects the BARO as basic information for mainly determining the fuel injection amount.
• PCM internally detects atmospheric pressure.
Construction
• A piezoelectric element has been adopted (as the detecting element) for detecting the BARO.
Operation
• Sends the signal, which fluctuates according to the BARO, to the PCM.
