The knocking sound that the sensor is designed to detect is caused by uneven combustion of a lower octane gasoline than the engine is able to burn efficiently. The knock sensor signals the Electronic Control Unit and ignition timing and other engine parameters are changed to eliminate the knocking. Knocking, if allowed to continue over a long time can seriously damage the engine. --Ken
