Techniques disclosed herein include systems and methods for sensor systems for measuring pressure in an exhaust conduit of a combustion engine. The sensor system includes an electronics module assembly and a housing assembly for housing the electronics module assembly. The electronics module assembly can include several components such as sensing element carrier element with a sensing element, an electronics module carrier element carrying electronic components. Electrical connections can be provided between the electronic module carrier element and the sensing element carrier element. Another component includes a main carrier element for supporting the sensing element carrier element and the electronic module carrier element.
