GMC Acadia Knock Sensor

Knock Sensor is one of the significant components of GMC Acadia vehicles, and its operation includes the assessment of the engine knock and transmission of signals to the PCM to alter ignition timing. It somehow reduces the high detonation in the ignition cycle to improve performance and to decrease the tendencies of damages. Usually piezoelectric, knock sensor measures movements and transforms them into electrical signals that are then checked for the increased pressure associated with combustion knock. Using momentary adjustments to ignition timing the engine is run at the exact limit of knock with low octane fuels. They can also get the timetables for every cylinder enhanced and command boost pressure for optimum result and durability in one or many other circumstances.

Each OEM GMC Acadia Knock Sensor we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
