Hyundai Venue: Engine Control System / Knock Sensor (KS). Description and operation
Knocking is a phenomenon characterized by undesirable vibration and noise and
can cause engine damage. Knock Sensor (KS) is installed on the cylinder block
and senses engine knocking.
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 ECM and the ECM retards the ignition
timing. If the knocking disappears after retarding the ignition timing, the
ECM will advance the ignition timing. This sequential control can improve engine
power, torque and fuel economy.
Inspection
1.
Check signal waveform of CKPS and CMPS using a scan tool.
Specification : Refer to "Waveform"
Removal
•
DON’T remove the camshaft position sensor during engine running
or right after engine stops, or a scald by the flowed out engine
oil may occur...
Other information:
This information identifies and describes the fundamental characteristics of
the tire and also provides the tire identification number (TIN) for safety standard
certification. The TIN can be used to identify the tire in case of a recall.

•
There may be some residual pressure even after "Release Residual
Pressure in Fuel Line" work, so cover the hose connection with
a shop towel to prevent residual fuel from spilling out before
disconnecting any fuel connection...

WARNING
To reduce the risk of an air bag deploying unexpectedly and causing serious
injury or death:
Do not hit or allow any objects to impact the locations where air bags
or sensors are installed.
Do not perform maintenance on or around the air bag sensors. If the location
or angle of the sensors is altered, the air bags may deploy when they should
not or may not deploy when they should.
Do not install bumper guards or replace the bumper with a nongenuine
HYUNDAI parts. This may adversely affect the collision and air bag deployment
performance.
Place the ignition switch in the LOCK/OFF or ACC position when the vehicle
is being towed to prevent inadvertent air bag deployment.
Have all air bag repairs conducted by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
