Adzn3k Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 Hi guys, What do I have to do to get my link to monitor knock? I know the car comes from factory with a knock sensor but what do I have to do get the ecu to monitor knock, do I have to buy a knock block?

Simon Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) On the G4+ plugin it is just a case of turning on the Knock control in the software and then configuring to suit the engine noise profile.No need to add additional devices.

Adzn3k Posted August 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 Is there a method to set up the knock control? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 Generally you want a safe tune on the engine that is known to have no knock. You can then run the engine and set the gains to give good signal levels and adjust the knock threshold to suit.For more specific information head to the PC link help fileNavigation: G4+ ECU Tuning Functions > Knock Control Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adzn3k Posted September 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 sorry to drag this up again but I was looking on the pin outs and the inputs and there's no listing for the knock sensor allthough on the st205 ecu plug its pin 42 I believe? ive read that its best to upgrade to a bosh type donut sensor?

Simon Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Yes it is not specified in the pinout we supply but where there is a factory sensor it will be wired in the ECU.As a general rule the Bosch donut sensor seems to always give the best results on a vast range of engines.
