2011 Ram 3500 Intake Manifold Temperature Sensors

CARQUEST MAP sensors are manufactured with critical OEM components to ensure that your engine runs efficiently to reach the best gas mileage on your vehicle.

Product Features:

• CARQUEST MAP sensors connectors are exact OE fit to ensure the proper vacuum is maintained to prevent power loss and to minimize internal contamination.
• CARQUEST MAP sensors utilize high temperature resistant seals. Damaged seals can directly impact the vehicles fuel-to-air ratio, making it less fuel efficient.
• CARQUEST MAP sensors are 100% individually tested for all product functionalities including proper vacuum seal and electrical output.

The temperature of various systems must be reported to the engine control module (ECM) as well as other operating system controllers in the vehicle. Coolant temperature, cabin temperature, exhaust temperature and ambient temperature are just a few systems reported by a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is fed 5 volts by the systems computer, within the sensor housing will be a thermistor, or dropping resistor whose resistance value will change as the temperature surrounding it changes. Changing resistance in the circuit will change the volt signal at the processor indicating the current operating value.

Product Features:

• Product constructed to meet all design and operating characteristics as intended by the vehicle manufacturer.
• 100% thermo-shock and vibration tested to ensure superior performance in extreme conditions.
• 100% end-of-line tested to ensure accurate signal output providing product reliability, every time.
• Tin plated lead frame prevents corrosion and ensures a reliable terminal connection under adverse ambient conditions.
• Lead frame terminal size and location determined using image dimension measuring system or 3D laser scanner.
• Application matched components ensures system operation in like new condition.
