Goss Knock Sensor K1598 – Engine Detonation & Spark Knock Detection

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The Goss Knock Sensor K1598 is designed to detect engine detonation and spark knock, allowing the ECU to optimise ignition timing and protect engine components from damage.

FUNCTION & BENEFITS

• Monitors engine for pre-ignition, pre-detonation and spark knock.
• Signals the ECU to adjust ignition timing to reduce knock.
• Helps maintain engine performance and torque output.
• Supports improved fuel efficiency when operating correctly.
• Reduces risk of long-term internal engine damage from uncontrolled combustion.

Engine knocking occurs when pockets of air/fuel mixture ignite prematurely ahead of the spark plug event. This creates excessive cylinder pressure, reduced power and potential engine damage. A faulty knock sensor can lead to increased fuel consumption, reduced torque and poor drivability.

QUALITY & RELIABILITY

• Aftermarket replacement engineered to meet OEM performance standards.
• Designed for precise detection of engine vibration frequencies associated with knock.
• Manufactured for durability in high-temperature, high-vibration engine environments.

The sensor is built to provide reliable feedback to the engine management system, supporting stable operation and long service life when installed and used as specified.

APPLICATION NOTES

• Part Number: K1598
• Component type: Knock sensor (engine detonation sensor)
• Intended use: Replacement of a worn, damaged or faulty knock sensor.

Always confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle using registration, VIN or an approved fitment guide before purchase and installation.
