| Circuit | Description |
|---|---|
| 5 V Reference | Regulated voltage supplied by the control module. |
| Signal | Digitally encoded information for communication between devices. |
| Low Reference | Grounded through the control module. |
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| B310 Fuel Pressure/Temperature Sensor | The sensor measures fuel rail pressure and fuel rail temperature. |
| K20 Engine Control Module | 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. |
The control module uses the fuel rail pressure sensor to constantly adjust the high pressure fuel pump's feed rate so that the ideal pressure is maintained in the high pressure section (between the high pressure fuel pump and the injectors) by means of a closed loop control. The fuel rail pressure sensor transmits fuel pressure and temperature information via serial data to the control module K20. The sensor's internal microprocessor allows 4 separate sensor outputs from one 3 wire sensor.
