Geo Ignition 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.

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.
