Check the rest of the wheel speed sensors on each wheel with this same procedure. Any difference in the ohm or voltage readings on a wheel will indicate either a wire break, short or a defective sensor. Be certain to reconnect all the wheel speed sensor jacks when finished. Mount the whe...
we’re going to change the O2 sensors on a 2003 Dodge Ram pickup truck. We’ve got our quality replacement sensors with actual flip right on there. So it’s going to be really easy plugging into the factory wiring harness. All you’re really going to need for this is either...
If you use a mouse for your laptop or PC, you’ll need to know how to change mouse sensitivity at one point or another. Whether you’re dealing with precision-based tasks or you recently purchased a new mouse, it’s important to know the ins and outs of this feature. That’s especia...
Place wheel chocks behind the rear wheels and lift the front of the vehicle using an automotive jack. Lower the vehicle down onto jack stands and remove the jack. Step 3 Crawl underneath the engine and locate the crank angle sensor. It is in the center of the engine block, between the f...
If you attach the sensor to the wheel shown above, you can measure the angular velocity of the z axis of the gyro.What is the benefit of a gyro sensor?A gyroscope senses change in orientation of a device, and when paired with an accelerometer, is an excellent tool for measuring the ...
A Hall-effect sensor stationed near the rotor (rotating part of the motor) will be able to detect its orientation very precisely by measuring variations in the magnetic field. Sensors like this can also be used to measure speed (for example, to count how fast a wheel or car engine cam ...

Once the jumper is in place, To reset you VSC error codes and lights: turn car on. Press the bakes (enough to make the tail lights come on, not all they way) and release 8 times. Once you have done it enough times the display will change to "VSC DIAG OK" Remember to remove jump...
Tire Type: Train wheel Coefficient of Rolling Friction: 0.001 Let's figure out how much force a typical car might use to push its tires down the road. Let's say our car weighs 4,000 pounds (1814.369 kg), and the tires have a CRF of 0.015. The force is equal to 4,000 x 0.015,...
In an INS, sensors on the gimbals' axles detect when the platform rotates. The INS uses those signals to understand the vehicle's rotations relative to the platform. If you add to the platform a set of three sensitive accelerometers, you can tell exactly where the vehicle is heading and ...
