Level Sensors: What Are They?
A level sensor is around for a specific reason and that reason is of course to detect the level of substances that flow. There are a few things that can be tracked such as powders, granular materials and liquids. Once the sensor has been installed it will allow companies to see how much is in a certain container and whether it is actually too high or too low. There are many different types of level sensors available and it depends on what time of product you are hoping to detect.
Solids
Rotating Paddle
This sensor is most likely the oldest of ones out there and this it works by rotating a paddle around using a very low speed gear motor. There is a problem with using so called "old technology" and that is of course that they must be sealed. If even the finest particles of dust get anywhere near the system the results you will be getting will not be right.
Vibrating Point
These will detect levels on powder like solids as well as granular solids. They are great for the job in hand as they have sensitivity adjustments and they can also sense the level of powder and static materials.
Liquids
These do exactly the same thing as the solid ones but of course detect liquids a lot better, they are more commonly used and companies such as dairy's will often use technology like this to make sure that the milk levels are not too high or low and they can also be used to check things like temperatures too. It will cost you a lot of money if an accident happens because you do not have one of these sensors so it is a good idea to get one.
Of course these are not the only kind of sensors available out there to help out companies, there are things like a capacitance sensor and grain silos that will also help out businesses too. So there you have it, hope the understanding of a level sensor is now a lot better.
How do I program the 1997 Nissan Maxima ECM for the new mass air flow sensor I just installed?
I got P0174 on a 1997 Nissan Maxima (fuel system for bank 2 was too lean). I just installed a new mass air flow sensor but it's choking the engine right now. The box came with the MAF sensor says to re-program the ECM (computer controlling the air flow). How can I do that without going to the dealer?
Thanks,
Did some idiot at Auto Zone tell you need a new Mass Air Flow sensor? That is the least likely problem although it could be but doubtful. It's probably an O2 sensor in reality.
It could be an intake leak, the left O2 sensor (which is probably the real issue) low fuel pressure, bad injector or an exhaust leak before it's a mass air flow sensor, however as I said it could be but I doubt it.
The mass air flow sensor is placed in the stream of intake air. It measures the intake flow rate by measuring a part of the entire intake flow. It consists of a hot film that is supplied with electric current from the ECM. The temperature of the hot film is controlled by the ECM a certain amount. The heat generated by the hot wire is reduced as the intake air flows around it. The more air, the greater the heat loss.
Therefore, the ECM must supply more electric current to the hot film as air flow increases. This maintains the temperature of the hot film. The ECM detects the air flow by means of this current change.
Driving the vehicle will help the ECM relearn the new sensor in most cases. You shouldn't have to reprogram it. It may be a bad sensor too by the way. Especially from Auto Zone
