Where is the ball joint located? The ball joint is found at the wheel, with one end connected to the steering knuckle and the other the control arm. Automotive ball joints are most common in the front suspension. However, vehicles that use rear or four-wheel steering will have ball joints in the rear as well. […]

MEANING OF BALL JOINT The ball joint is a suspension component that forms the connection between a vehicle’s control arms and the steering knuckles. As such, it acts as a pivot point for the wheels and suspension. Virtually every automobile manufactured today will have ball joints, which makes these components one of the most common […]
There are 3 major types of Oxygen sensor for cars; 1. TITANIA OXYGEN Sensor 2. WIDE BAND OXYGEN SENSOR 3. ZIRCONA OXYGEN SENSOR TITANIA OXYGEN SENSOR: Titania O2 sensors are made of different kinds of ceramics. This oxygen sensor sends signals differently. Instead of making voltage, the sensor lowers its resistance when the engine is […]
MEANING OF OXYGEN SENSOR An oxygen sensor (or lambda sensor, where lambda refers to air–fuel equivalence ratio, usually denoted by λ) is an electronic device that measures the proportion of oxygen (O2) in the gas or liquid being analyzed. It was developed by Robert Bosch GmbH during the late 1960s under the supervision of Dr. Günter Bauman. The original sensing element is made with a thimble-shaped zirconia ceramic coated on both the exhaust and […]
TYPES OF PHASE OR CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR Generally, there are four types of crankshaft or camshaft position sensors: magnetic pick-up coils, Hall-effect sensors, magneto-resistive element (MRE) sensors, and optical sensors. Inductive sensors have the simplest construction and are usually purely passive devices. Hall effect and magneto-resistive sensors have the advantage over inductive sensors in that they […]
MEANING OF PHASE OR CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR A phase or camshaft position sensor is an electronic device used in an internal combustion engine, both petrol and diesel, to monitor the position or rotational speed of the crankshaft.The camshaft position sensor gathers information about the vehicle’s camshaft speed and sends it to the vehicle’s engine control […]
