An electronic oil probe is replaced by a traditional metal probe with labels on it. In fact, an electronic probe is not a probe, but a sensor that sends a signal to the vehicle's computer. Assignation of an electronic oil probe

Assignation of an electronic oil probe

The traditional oil-plating probe, which is also known as a measurement rod, is designed to keep track of the level of oil in the crankcase. It provides the opportunity to visually determine the level and extent of oil contamination.

Some models of AUDI use an ordinary metal probe with a special [ [ population]] that allows you to see the level of oil on the electronic scale in the car's car

Electronic oil probe probe that does not require visual inspection. It sends a signal that interprets the vehicle's onboard computer and then displays the information in the form of text messages accompanied by a sound signal.

How the electronic oil probe is acting

A simple electronic probe is a tube with a melting of light material not exposed to oil. The float has a built-in contact that closes with the second contact below the float if the oil is at a critical point. In this case, the signal is sent to the input connector of the onboard computer. Information is displayed on the display to warn of the need to increase the volume of motor oil.

For checking the oil level, the scooter engine is using an electronic device that does not need to be constantly transported

Depending on the manufacturer, the design may vary. There are probes to keep track of not only the lowest level, but also the exceedance, and the level between the minimum and maximum. Modern engines of VAG's group and a number of other manufacturers are equipped with such probes.


Text messages and sound signals appear when the key is in the ignition lock. After the inscriptions have been extingutered, the presence of information, such as low oil, remains on the onboard computer screen. If necessary, messages marked with the presence sign can be called from memory or, on the other hand, be cleared before they are automatically removed. For complete information about how to manage the onboard computer, you can obtain from the guide obtained by purchasing the car along with the keys.  Examples of low level or oil quality messages

Examples of low level or oil quality messages

Modern on-board computers give a lot of messages that are not always easy to understand. In general, electronic systems use English, so understanding many technical terms is difficult. In the case of European cars, the interface may not be localized or even provided with international English.

Stop! Oildruk Motor "is translated as" Stop. The engine oil pressure ";

The message "Sensor-Oilstand" means "Sensor that determines the engine oil level";

The "Oilstand Getriebe" signal displayed on the screen reflects the level of oil in ACPR;

The phrase "Oildruck Sensor" is translated as "Oil pressure sensor";

If you need to check the engine oil level, "Oilstand Motor pruffen" will appear on the onboard computer.
