Am I dumb - Sensor Scaling

Post by proutyc »

Sorry if this is silly but it Friday night and swear I'm going crazy.

I use a GM 3Bar map sensor and I was attempting to manually load the voltages and PSI. What weird is I save the file. When I save it and reopen it has different numbers than what I just typed. Anyone seen this?

Thanks

I've fixed it. I had to manually update them as KPA (change units) then save file. Then change units back to psi then it saved the correct numbers.

Weird but glad its sorted

Odd, though good to know. I have entered values before but don't think recall any issues.

yeah thanks Steve.

Problem is there are 3 different scales for Bosch 3bar map sensors and the default wasn't the same as mine so I wanted to manually upload.

I've attached as an excel file so you can see the variances between the 3

Sorry meant GM.

The excel file shows the few different 3 bar GM by part number with the different scaling.

I have part number 16040749
