So, I am responsible for the BSPD and its extensions, but the problem with the Brake Pressure Sensor is that I cannot find a good one within a normal price range. Also, even if I find one, the output must be 5V VDC because I followed the 2019 reference BSPD design in our PCB, so current-output sensors need extra work which I am sure will look ugly on the car. I looked for old car parts and this VAG sensor actually looked like a good option: 55CP15-01 1J0919597B. But the real problem is that very few cars have this removable sensor; new ones are integrated with the ABS module. When I go to an auto parts store or scrap yard, they either don't have this sensor or they don't want to give it to me since it's a part of the ABS system. So, what did you guys use for the BPS? Maybe I can try using an oil pressure sensor since there are a ton of them in the junkyard, but their capacity is a maximum of 30 bar.
