Lexus RX330 Knock Sensor

Knock Sensor that is used in Lexus RX330 vehicles is an essential of the vehicle as it is used to detect the knock of the engine and relay signals to the powertrain control for correction of timing of the ignition. Usually piezoelectric, the sensor performs the act of changing the vibrations into electrical signals in relation to pressure spikes that represent knock. It can enable persons to make very fine adjustments to the ignition timing and eliminate chances of damaging the engines. Some can even change the timings of every cylinder and control the boost pressure for maximum power and durability in different situations. A typical technique that has enhanced the management of engines in current car models is Lexus RX330 Knock Sensor technology.
