Chevrolet Camaro cars use Knock Sensor in order to maintain its proper function and it refers to the situation where ignition timing is wrong. It transmits signals to the powertrain control module (PCM) so that the PCM can change the ignition timing in a bid to control excessive detonation. In general, piezoelectric knock sensors implemented in Chevrolet Camaro models enable a constant monitoring of pressure steps all the while tracking the knocking. Year, Chevrolet Camaro models have incorporated sophisticated knock sensor features that allow for adjustments of ignition timing for each cylinder. The capability aids in sustaining the premier performance at the same time diminishing the possibility of harming the engine with even lesser octane fuel. The Knock Sensor system would guarantee resourceful operation of Chevrolet Camaro under various conditions to boost of performance and durability of its engine.
