⚙️ Key Features

  • 36 grams
  • 89 listed applications on DPX drives
  • Ignition and Control Systems group
  • 8 inch diameter by 18 inch pitch

🔌 Function

Converts a running condition into an electrical signal the control system reads, so fuelling and ignition can be set to match.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

  • Fault code or warning lamp on the display
  • Misfire, hesitation or uneven idle
  • Engine cutting out and restarting cleanly a moment later
  • Reading on the gauge or diagnostic screen that does not match reality
  • Corrosion in the connector or a chafed lead found on inspection

🛠️ Service Notes

  • This is the lightest of the four sensors in the group at 36 grams - 3854512, 3854905 and 3855194 are the others, and all share the same plain name, so order by part number
  • Back-probe the connector and check the loom before replacing the sensor
