Rocker Arm Carrier
A housing that the rocker arms and their fulcrums are
mounted to.
Thermistor
Sensor used to determine temperature. A thermistor changes
it's resistance value in relation to temperature change.
Increasing temperature results in decreasing resistance,
decreasing temperature results in increasing resistance. The
thermistor in conjunction with a current limiting resistor in the
PCM forms a voltage divider that provides a voltage signal
indicating temperature. Since the top half of the voltage
divider is the current limiting resistor and is internal to the
PCM, a thermistor sensor only has two connections, signal
return and ground.
Variable Capacitance Sensor
A sensor that is used to determine pressure. A variable
capacitance sensor changes it capacitance value in relation
pressure change. Increasing pressure results in a lower
capacitance, thus increasing return voltage. Decreasing
pressure results in a higher capacitance and a lower voltage.
Variable capacitance sensors are 3 wire sensors.
VBAT
Battery voltage.
VGT Variable Geometry Turbocharger
Could also be called EVRT. A turbocharger that has a turbine
housing that can change sizes through electronically con-
trolled hydraulics.
VGTCV Variable Geometry Turbocharger
Control Valve
Could also be called EVRTCV. Controls oil flow in and out of
the VGT actuator in order to change the effective size of its
turbine housing.
VPWR
Battery voltage.
VSS Vehicle Speed Sensor
Normally a magnetic pickup style sensor that is mounted on
the tailshaft of the transmission to indicate ground speed.
