• Blade terminal type with a rectangular female connector
• 2-terminal electrical design
• Knock sensor location for engine block, cylinder head, or intake manifold applications
• OE-style replacement for select Kia Cadenza, Sedona, and Sorento models
• Part number 1815025 for direct reference during ordering and service lookup

Detailed Product Information

This Global Parts knock sensor is built for vehicles that use a left-side sensor location and a 2-terminal blade connection. It is used to detect abnormal engine vibration caused by spark knock or detonation so the engine management system can respond with the proper timing correction. This part number 1815025 cross-references Standard Ignition KS492 for the same application.

Compatible With 2017-2019 Kia Cadenza, left; 2018-2019 Kia Sedona, left; 2017-2019 Kia Sorento, left; and 2016 Kia Cadenza, left OE-393203C200. Search terms such as Kia Cadenza knock sensor left, Kia Sorento detonation sensor replacement, and Kia Sedona engine knock sensor 1815025 align with this application.

Common Issues This Sensor May Address

• Knock sensor fault codes related to abnormal combustion detection
• Engine pinging or spark knock under load
• Reduced timing control from a failing detonation sensor
• Rough engine operation caused by incorrect knock signal input
• Check engine light concerns tied to the knock sensor circuit

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the connector shape, terminal count, and left-side location before installation. Because knock sensors are mounted on the engine block, cylinder head, or intake manifold depending on the engine design, confirm the original sensor position and OE reference before replacement. On Kia Cadenza, Kia Sedona, and Kia Sorento applications, matching the connector and mounting style is important for proper fitment.

Quality Assurance

Global Parts supplies this sensor as an OE-style replacement for the listed Kia applications. The design follows the original electrical layout with a rectangular female connector and blade terminals for service replacement consistency.
