FUNCTION AND OPERATION PRICIPLE
Knocking is a phenomenon characterized by undesirable vibration and noise and can cause engine damage. Knock
Sensor (KS) senses engine knocking and the two sensors are installed inside the V- valley of the cylinder block. When
knocking occurs, the vibration from the cylinder block is applied as pressure to the piezoelectric element. At this time,
this sensor transfers the voltage signal higher than the specified value to the PCM and the PCM retards the ignition
timing. If the knocking disappears after retarding the ignition timing, the PCM will advance the ignition timing. This
sequential control can improve engine power, torque and fuel economy.

INSPECTION
FUNCTION AND OPERATION PRICIPLE
Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKPS) detects the crankshaft position and is one of the most important sensors of the
engine control system. If there is no CKPS signal input, fuel is not supplied and the main relay does not operate. That
is, vehicle can't run without CKPS signal. This sensor is installed on transaxle housing and generates alternating
current by magnetic flux field which is made by the sensor and the target wheel when engine runs. The target wheel
consists of 58 slots and 2 missing slots on 360 CA (Crank Angle).

INSPECTION
FUNCTION AND OPERATION PRICIPLE
Based on information from various sensors, the PCM measures the fuel injection amount. The fuel injector is a
solenoid- operated valve and the fuel injection amount is controlled by length of time that the fuel injector is held open.
The PCM controls each injector by grounding the control circuit. When the PCM energizes the injector by grounding
the control circuit, the circuit voltage should be low (theoretically 0V) and the fuel is injected. When the PCM de-
energizes the injector by opening control circuit, the fuel injector is closed and circuit voltage should momentarily peak.
If an injector connector is disconnected for more than 46 seconds while the engine runs, the PCM will determine
that the cylinder is misfiring and cut fuel supply. So be careful not to exceed 46 seconds. But the engine runs
normally in 10 seconds after turning the ignition key off.
