Knock Shield compatibility with another knock sensors

Post by CMW » 12 Feb 2022 00:41

Hello,

According to the informations, Knock Shield is fully compatible with the KS4-P.
The question is - how about different sensors? My engine comes from factory with Bosch 0 261 231 144 KS-1-K. Will knock shield do its job properly with those ones too, or the KS4-P are mandatory to go with?

Thank you

The Knock Shield for Arduino is only tested using the KS4-P sensor, which is of the type non-resonating. I am not able to find any information about which type the KS-1-K sensor is. Watch our knock video explaining the differences.

Thank you.
