2012 Lexus IS F Knock Sensors

Carquest Knock Sensors respond to a wide range of engine knock frequencies providing accurate engine condition to the ECM for optimal ignition timing. Highest quality piezoceramic element manufactured to tight tolerances for increased durability. All Carquest Knock Sensors are designed to meet or exceed OEM specifications at our ISO TS16949 manufacturing facilities.

Product Features:

• Precision piezoceramic element ensures accurate response to a wide range of engine vibrations
• Manufactured using the highest quality OEM materials to ensure optimal performance and rugged durability
• Designed to meet or exceed all OEM specifications in fit, form & function
• Extensive product testing includes salt spray, high/low temperature impact, thermal cycling, vibration, drop among other tests, to ensure all sensors meet or exceed OEM specifications.

The Ignition Knock (Detonation) Sensor monitors vibrations caused by engine knock or detonation to alter the ignition timing and prevent detonation. A piezoelectric crystal generates a varying voltage based upon engine vibration intensity to delay ignition timing to help prevent severe and costly engine damage. Reasons for replacement include check engine light illumination, engine hesitation, poor fuel economy or failed emissions test.

Product Features:

• ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY: Manufactured to operation performance standards to meet or exceed OE fit, form, and function to ensure proper ignition timing.
• INSTALLATION AND SUPPORT: Mounting threads, harness length and wire gauge match OE for easy, worry free installation.
• THE DIFFERENCE: Reinforced components are used to reduce the chance of part failure and prevent corrosion and moisture penetration. Shielded harness prevents electrical interference.
