it reads if your motor is knocking. say bad rod bearings or loose valves. it will kick your check engine light on if it reads knock from the motor.
This is controlled by a knock sensor.
The knock sensor is located near the idle air control solenoid valve on a 2001 Subaru Forester. The knock sensor is responsible for sensing vibrations caused by engine knock.
Electronic spark control is not receiving sinal from knock sensor Try replacing knock sensor
LS does not have a knock sensor. GSR does have a knock sensor
The knock sensor detects spark knock (aka ping), sends that signal to the engine control module (ECM), the ECM retards the timing until the spark knock stops.
The function of the knock sensor ob a sensor on a 1991 4.3 s10 is to provide the computer the position of the crank shaft to give it the right information to get correct timing. That would be the crank position sensor. The knock sensor monitors the engine for spark knock (ping) so the ECM (Engine Control Module) can retard the timing to eliminate it.
The knock sensor detects spark knock or ping.
No, the knock sensor helps the engine computer control ignition timing. The water pump pumps coolant through the engine, heater, and radiator.
Yes, it helps the engine control computer monitor and adjust the timing
A knock sensor is typically used to detect combustion knock in an engine. It is a specialized sensor that detects the vibrations and noises associated with knock and sends signals to the engine control unit to adjust timing and prevent engine damage.
