What does a knock sensor do

The knock sensor is bolted to the engine block and listens for the specific vibration signature of detonation. When knock is detected, the sensor sends a signal to the ECU, which retards ignition timing to bring combustion back under control. This protects pistons, rings, bearings and the cylinder head from long term damage and helps the engine run more smoothly under load.

Typical symptoms of a failing knock sensor

• Engine warning light or fault code relating to knock detection

• Noticeable loss of power or poor acceleration

• Rough running under load or at certain rpm

• Increased fuel consumption

These symptoms can also be caused by other faults, so diagnosis should always follow the manufacturer guidance.
