Measure the impedance with a gain-phase analyzer if you have access to one.

Depends what kind of sensor you are asking about. Piezo properties are used in quite a few sensors.


How does a knock sensor work?

A knock sensor is a piezoelectric device that senses the knocks produced in the engine. The knock sensor tells de computer to retard the timing in order to prevent piston damage and/or blown head gaskets.

How do the 02sensor work?

an 02 sensor is a piezoelectric sensor which creates a voltage based on the amount of oxygen present in the exhaust. this lets the engines computer know how rich or lean the engine is running and adjust accordingly


How do you check knock sensor on a 94 Nissan Pathfinder LE?

The detonation sensor ( knock sensor ) really cannot be checked by the home mechanic it is either good or bad. It consists of a pressure sensing piezoelectric element that converts pressure differences into electrical signals that can be read by the computer.

How does a knock sensor retard the timing?

•many EFI engines have knock sensor.the knock sensor may be mounted in the block cylinder head or intake manifold. •A piezoelectric sensing element is mounted in the knock sensor and the resistor is connected parallel to the sensing elements. when the engine detonates, a vibration occurs in the engine. •The piezoelectric sensing element changes the vibration into an analog voltage and this signal is sent to the knock sensor module. •The knock sensor module changes the AC voltage signal into a digital voltage and sends this signal to the ECU. When the ECU receives this signal, it reduces the spark advance to prevent detonation. •Reference book: Automotive technology


Can a crankshaft sensor cause a failure to pass smog test?

Probably not as the emissions test (Smog test) is carried out by inserting a sensor into the exhaust pipe.
