Standard Ignition AS420 Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor

Overview of Standard Ignition AS420 Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor

The Standard Ignition AS420 Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor is engineered for precise engine management in select Jaguar, Land Rover, and Volvo vehicles. This sensor plays a critical role in monitoring manifold pressure to optimize fuel injection and ignition timing.

• Direct replacement for OEM manifold absolute pressure sensors
• Compatible with multiple Jaguar, Land Rover, and Volvo models including F-Type, Range Rover Sport, and S60
• Ensures accurate manifold pressure readings for improved engine performance
• Durable construction designed to withstand harsh engine environments
• Part number AS420 for easy identification and fitment verification

Product Details and Compatibility

The AS420 sensor from Standard Ignition is designed to meet or exceed original equipment specifications for manifold absolute pressure measurement. It is compatible with a range of vehicles such as the Jaguar F-Type, XE, XF, and XJ series, Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, LR2, and Range Rover Sport, as well as Volvo models including the S40, S60, V50, and XC70. This sensor accurately measures the pressure inside the intake manifold, providing essential data to the engine control unit (ECU) for efficient fuel delivery and emission control.

Common Applications and Problem Resolution

• Helps resolve engine stalling or rough idling caused by incorrect manifold pressure readings
• Addresses poor fuel economy linked to faulty sensor data
• Corrects issues with engine hesitation or reduced power output

• Supports emission control compliance by providing accurate sensor input

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation of the Standard Ignition AS420 sensor requires basic mechanical skills and proper tools. Before installation, ensure the engine is cool and disconnect the battery to avoid electrical shorts. Carefully remove the old sensor and inspect the mounting area for debris or damage. Install the new sensor securely, reconnect the electrical connector, and clear any diagnostic trouble codes using an OBD-II scanner if necessary. Verify proper operation by checking for stable engine idle and absence of warning lights.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Standard Ignition manufactures the AS420 sensor to meet stringent quality standards, ensuring reliable performance and durability. While specific warranty details may vary, Standard Ignition typically offers a limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. This provides confidence in the sensor’s longevity and function when installed in compatible Jaguar, Land Rover, and Volvo vehicles.
