| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| K20 Engine Control Module | The control module contains a microprocessor used to process input data to control outputs. The control module controls a series of actuators to ensure optimal engine performance. The control module does this by reading values from a variety of sensors, interprets the data and adjusts the engine actuators accordingly. |
| B112 Turbocharger Vane Position Sensor | The sensor is an analog potentiometer that varies its resistance proportionally with the position of the control rod. The variable geometry turbocharger includes a ring of aerodynamically shaped vanes in the turbine housing at the exhaust inlet. With changing the angle of the vanes it is possible to regulate the boost pressure. The vanes are rotated by a vacuum actuator which is controlled by a solenoid valve. |
