Original Abstract Submitted

a sensor cleaning system includes an air tank connected to a compressor through a first connector and to be filled with high-pressure air by the compressor. the system also has a roof module and a rear bumper module. the system includes an air flow path connected to the air tank and branched by a second connector to a first branched air flow path and a second branched air flow path. the first branched air flow path is connected through a third connector to the roof module and the second branched air flow path is connected through a fourth connector to the rear bumper module. the system also includes a pressure sensor installed on each of the air tank, the roof module, and the rear bumper module to detect pressures thereof. the system also includes a controller configured to determine connection states of the first connector, the second connector, the third connector, and the fourth connector through a difference in pressures.
