Description

This add-on board is designed to solder directly onto the MS3 daughterboard, providing two channels of knock input for the MS3 to use in retarding spark. This module features a significantly more sophisticated knock detection circuit compared to any previous MegaSquirt knock detection systems.

Key Features:

  • Programmable Bandpass Filter: Fine-tune the detection range to your specific engine.
  • Adaptive Knock Levels: Adjusts detection thresholds with RPM for optimized performance.
  • Per-Cylinder Assignment: Assign different cylinders to different sensors for precision tuning.
  • Individual Gain Levels: Customize gain levels for each cylinder for greater control.

Refer to the MS3 Manual for further details on setup and configuration.

Knock Sensor Compatibility

Our testing utilized the Bosch 0 261 231 008 sensor, a broadband (non-resonant) sensor type with no built-in filtering, making it suitable for a wide variety of bore sizes. Other similar Bosch sensors, such as the Bosch 0 261 231 006, should also work effectively. This knock module can also pair with tuned knock sensors if they are matched to your engine’s bore size.

Compatibility

This module is only compatible with the MS3/MS3X ECU

Optional Installation Service

  • If you are ordering this knock module alongside an assembled MS3, we can install the module during the ECU assembly for an additional $15 charge.
  • To request installation, please include a note in the Comments field during checkout. If no note is provided, the module will be shipped as a separate part.

Note: If you are considering an assembled MS3 with a knock module, you may want to explore the MS3Pro EVO+ & EVO+ HC, which includes the knock conditioner and real-time clock circuit as standard features.

Enhance your MS3’s capabilities with this advanced knock detection solution!

I have an engine with more than two knock sensors. Can I use multiple modules to read four knock sensors?

  • The MS3 only supports two knock sensors, but you should be able to make two sensors work for your engine.

Where is this board made?

  • The PCB is made in the USA and assembly takes place in Gainesville, Georgia, USA.

I ordered this installed in an MS3 V3.57. What pins will it use for the knock input?

  • Our solder tech will connect knock input 1 to DB15 pin 10 and knock input 2 to DB15 pin 11 unless you request other pins by special order.

How do I wire up the Bosch 0 261 231 008 sensor?

  • Pin 1 – knock sensor input on ECU.
  • Pin 2 – sensor ground.
  • Pin 3 – connect to shield, if using shielded wire.

    If this is an MS2 V3.0 or V3.57, it would be considerably less time and expense to upgrade to MS3. The knock IC on this board needs to interface directly to a processor over SPI, and the MS2 processor's SPI port is tied up running the ignition in MS2/Extra code.

    The post office claims that shipping time is 3-5 days, but in practice, it's usually around 10 to 14 business days once time to get through the customs office is included.
