Timing Sensor for Ferrari

Description

A timing sensor is part number 224573 for Ferrari. Another name for it is a phase sensor. The camshaft and crankshaft positions are tracked by the timing sensor. The engine control unit (ECU) uses this data to regulate fuel injection and ignition timing. A broken timing sensor can result in a number of issues, such as engine misfires, decreased performance, and even engine failure. The timing sensor is an essential component of the engine management system.

On the engine block, close to the crankshaft and camshaft, is where you’ll find the timing sensor. The sensor is tiny and cylindrical, and it has a wire connector. The sensor looks for teeth on a revolving wheel using a magnetic field. The teeth of the wheel are spaced regularly, and it is fixed to the crankshaft or camshaft. The teeth pass by the sensor as the wheel rotates, producing a signal. The signal is used by the ECU to calculate the crankshaft and camshaft positions.

Regular inspections and replacements of the timing sensor are crucial because it is an essential component of the engine management system. In addition to causing a host of issues, a malfunctioning timing sensor can harm an engine.

This car part is suitable for the following models:
458 Challenge, 458 Italia, 458 Speciale, 458 Speciale Aperta, 458 Spider and 50 other model(s).
