was hoping you'd tell me :grin:

from the research i've carried out...

BAROMETRIC PRESSURE (BARO) SENSOR. The baro sensor measures barometric pressure so the computer can compensate for changes in altitude and/or barometric pressure that would affect the fuel mixture or timing. Some MAP sensors also perform this function.

getting a little confused with this and the map sensor tbh, as i've read they are the same thing?


is this also called a 'Altitude Sensor'
