TYRES PRESSURE CONTROL SENSOR

TYRES PRESSURE CONTROL SENSOR

Product Description:

The purpose of Maserati part number 314818 tires pressure control sensor (TPMS sensor) is to monitor the air pressure in each tire and warn the driver if the pressure is too low. TPMS sensors are required on all new cars and light trucks sold in the United States.

TPMS sensors are typically located inside the tire, near the valve stem. They use a variety of technologies to measure the air pressure and transmit the data to the vehicle's computer. The computer then compares the data to the recommended tire pressure and displays a warning light on the dashboard if the pressure is too low.

TPMS sensors are an important safety feature because they can help to prevent underinflated tires, which can lead to blowouts, loss of control, and increased fuel consumption.

Here is a more detailed explanation of the purpose of TPMS sensors:

• To prevent underinflated tires. Underinflated tires are more likely to overheat and fail, which can lead to blowouts. Blowouts can cause loss of control of the vehicle and can result in serious accidents.
• To improve fuel efficiency. Underinflated tires have a higher rolling resistance, which means that the engine has to work harder to move the vehicle. This can reduce fuel efficiency by up to 3%.
• To extend the life of tires. Underinflated tires wear out more quickly than properly inflated tires. TPMS sensors can help to extend the life of tires by ensuring that they are always properly inflated.

TPMS sensors are a relatively inexpensive and easy way to improve the safety and performance of your vehicle.
