The vacuum pressure sensor is located in the brake servo. The sensor is supplied 5 V and is grounded in the brake control module (BCM). The sensor plays a dual role. It measures the vacuum pressure between the vacuum chamber and work chamber and also detects pressure changes in both chambers. The signal ratio between the chambers should correspond. The vacuum pressure sensor is found in vehicles without vacuum pump.
