A knock sensor is a pezio electric device that adjusts ignition timing to optimize emissions and fuel economy. It measures the "knocks" that happen when timing is too early or late.
LS does not have a knock sensor. GSR does have a knock sensor
The knock sensor detects spark knock or ping.
Where is the knock sensor for a 99 pathfinder
that the knock sensor does
knock sensors operate the same in every vehicle. when the engine "pings" or called spark knock( due to bad gas or low octane fuel, carbon build up on top of pistons or valves) the knock sensor sees this and retards the timing. vehicles now days, timing is not adjustable by u or me, only through the computer using the knock sensor and other sensors. master tech 26 yrs.
you mean knock sensor
knock sensor location
I don't believe it has a knock sensor.
Knock sensor = CKP sensor on this vehicle.
The knock sensor retards the engine timing when there is a knock or ping detected. This will make the car a little sluggish. It is rare that the knock sensor goes bad.
A knock sensor is a piezoresistive sensor whose signal is varied by the amount of force or pressure applied to it.
The knock sensor is located under the Intake Manifold and there is a knock sensor 1/ knock sensor 2 on this model,the 2 is the one in the rear.
