Technical Specifications

Installation Guide

1. Disconnect the Battery: For safety, remove the negative battery terminal before working on the engine.
2. Locate the Existing Sensor: The sensor is typically mounted near the turbocharger inlet or on the intake manifold.
3. Remove Old Wiring Harness: Carefully detach the wiring harness from the old sensor, noting the connector orientation.
4. Detach the Old Sensor: Use a suitable socket to loosen and remove the mounting bolts. Be prepared for any residual pressure; allow the system to vent if necessary.
5. Install the New V46720097 Sensor: Align the sensor with the mounting flange, secure it with bolts, and tighten to manufacturer specifications (usually 80–100 Nm).
6. Reconnect Wiring Harness: Plug the harness into the new sensor’s connector, ensuring a firm connection.
7. Re‑connect Battery: Restore the negative terminal.
8. Verify Operation: Start the engine and check for proper boost pressure readings on the ECU or diagnostic tool. Look for any error codes related to sensor malfunction.
