Differential Pressure Feedback Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Sensor
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 25 other vehicles, including the 2013 Lincoln Navigator, 2013 Lincoln MKZ, 2013 Lincoln MKX, 2013 Lincoln MKT, and 2013 Lincoln MKS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor is a piezo resistive type pressure transducer that monitors the differential pressure across a metering orifice. The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor receives this signal through 2 hoses referred to as the downstream pressure hose and upstream pressure hose (note the upstream pressure hose uses a larger diameter hose). The differential pressure feedback EGR sensor outputs a voltage proportional to the pressure drop across the metering orifice and supplies it to the PCM as EGR flow rate feedback.
