Dodge Challenger Ambient Temperature Sensor

The Sensor plays a critical role in the mass airflow reading the air temperature of Dodge challenger vehicles, which is an element of the electronic fuel injection system. This sensor sends information to the ECU so that it can regulate and alter fuel supply depending on the existing climate. Being the primary element controlling the differences in air and fuel mixture temperature, the Ambient Temperature Sensor improves engine efficiency and environmentally friendly characteristics due to precise air-fuel ratio. In Dodge Challenger models, different Ambient Temperature Sensors have been used in the past but all the designs aimed at measuring the correct airflow. The improper functioning of the Ambient Temperature Sensor entails passing incorrect information to the ECU and thus poor engine performance may be experienced, or the car may go to the emergency mode. It is therefore important that a faulty Ambient Temperature Sensor be replaced before it eventually affects the working of the vehicle.
