Brake Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation



Brake Pressure Sensor
The pressure sensor is integrated in the hydraulic unit and senses the brake pressure from the master cylinder in the primary circuit. The pressure sensor sends information to the control module about the current pressure, which is proportional to how hard the driver presses the brake pedal.
