Engine Control Module (ECM)



KS Module

The engine control module (ECM) employs an internal integrated circuit to continuously monitor the knock control evaluation circuit. The knock sensor (KS) module contains the circuitry that allows the ECM to utilize the KS signals and diagnose the KS sensors and circuitry. If the ECM detects a fault in the ability of the KS module to sample these signals, a DTC sets.
