Height Control Sensor

Inside each sensor, a brush integrated with the control sensor rotor shaft moves above the resister, providing linear output. The resistance value between the brush and resistor terminal changes in proportion to the shaft rotation angle, so the fixed voltage applied to the resistor by the ECU is modified by the sensor and output to the ECU as a voltage indicating the shaft rotation angle.
