Standard Ignition KS508 Ignition Knock (Detonation) Sensor

Ignition Knock Sensor for Hyundai Accent and Venue

Standard Ignition KS508 is an ignition knock (detonation) sensor built for direct-fit service on select Hyundai applications. It uses a 2-terminal, plug-in rectangular connector and bolt-mount attachment for a clean replacement on the engine block or designated mounting point.

Compatible With 2020-2023 Hyundai Venue and 2020-2022 Hyundai Accent, this sensor supports accurate knock detection for vehicles that rely on precise ignition timing control. The KS508 is a practical choice when diagnosing detonation-related drivability concerns on these Hyundai models.

Detailed Description

The Standard Ignition KS508 is engineered as a replacement knock sensor for Hyundai Accent and Hyundai Venue models within the listed fitment range. A knock sensor monitors engine vibration patterns and sends a signal to the engine control system so ignition timing can be adjusted when detonation is detected. This helps maintain proper engine operation on vehicles that depend on accurate sensor input for timing control.

This part cross-references DKS254 for the same application. When replacing a failed sensor, verify connector style, terminal count, and mounting location before installation. Standard Ignition KS508 is listed for 2020-2023 Hyundai Venue and 2020-2022 Hyundai Accent, making it a focused fitment option for these Hyundai platforms.

Common Issues This Part May Address

• Knock sensor fault codes
• Audible spark knock or detonation under load
• Rough engine performance related to incorrect timing correction
• Check engine light triggered by knock sensor circuit faults
• Reduced drivability caused by inaccurate engine vibration feedback

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the original connector shape, terminal count, and bolt-mount style before installation. Clean the mounting surface, inspect the harness connector for corrosion or damaged terminals, and torque the sensor to the vehicle manufacturer’s specification. Because mounting hardware is not included, reuse or source the required fastener separately if needed.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition supplies replacement electrical and engine management components for service applications. KS508 is built to match the listed fitment and connector configuration for direct replacement use on the specified Hyundai models.
