what does a knock sensor do

A knock sensor is a vital component of a vehicle's engine management system. It is designed to detect abnormal engine vibrations, or "knocking," caused by pre-ignition of the fuel. When the knock sensor detects these vibrations, it sends a signal to the engine control unit (ECU), which then adjusts the ignition timing to prevent engine damage. Our high-quality knock sensor is precision-engineered to ensure accurate detection of engine knock, providing reliable protection for your vehicle's engine. With its durable construction and advanced technology, our knock sensor is designed to withstand the harsh conditions of the engine environment, ensuring consistent and dependable performance. Whether you're a professional mechanic or a DIY enthusiast, our knock sensor is the perfect solution to ensure optimal engine performance and longevity. Upgrade your vehicle's engine management system with our knock sensor and enjoy peace of mind knowing that your engine is protected from potentially damaging knocking events.
