Thank you very much

Hi, What are those motors used in air-conditioning? Also BLDC?

[@diypotentials]

Those are ECM motors (electronically commutated motors). They are BLDC motors but the direct current used to drive them are AC that have been inverted into DC by a built-in inverter in the motors.

ty for early replay, yes i though so its different, i got it one running partially by sending in pwm, or few dc volts in signal input, they must be very efficient...?@@diypotentials

My O2 sensor Bank 2 Sensor 2 was replaced on 3.5 liter V6 2008 Camry engine with 220,000 miles, but the old one came out stripped on top where it screws and fits tightly. So the mechanic could not get the new one to fit tightly because the pipe hole was larger because the old one was stripped and forced to install in place before I bought the car in 2019. So now I have this harsh coarse engine start up and acceleration sound (sounds like an old 5.0 liter V8 engine) with a check engine light. The pipe that is underneath the car where the 02 sensor is connected to is rusted. The mechanic told me that needs to be replaced. I don't know to what to do about getting it repaired since I need it to drive until I can purchase another car on June 22. I have put $1500 dollars in it with new ignition coil and battery in past 3 weeks. My gas mileage is still good with 20.8. I am not running the A/C because that is when the check engine came on. So, I burning up in this Texas heat.

Ahh man! Sorry to hear about your car situation. I hope the new car will make up for it. Take care!
