Sensor Diagnosis
A differential pressure sensor that reads wrong will report a blocked filter that is perfectly clear, and the usual cost of that is a filter cleaned for no reason. Testing the sensor means working on the vehicle. What we can do is measure the filter, which settles whether it was ever the problem.

What we can do instead
Differential pressure and temperature sensor testing is carried out on the vehicle by your own workshop. We measure the filter itself.
- Bench measurement of the filter, which tells you if the sensor was lying
- A clear filter identified before anyone pays to clean it
- Sensor testing and replacement on the vehicle is your workshop
- Ask us and we can suggest a workshop that carries it out

A blocked filter rarely has a single cause. These are the services most commonly carried out in the same visit.
