What does the OE knock sensor produce on a MY96 UK turbo?
Is it a voltage above a threshold during knock, some sort of waveform or something else?
Thanks...

Dave,
The actual sensor is just a microphone.

this for some good background.
The ECU filters the waveform and reacts (or doesn't) to specific frequencies/amplitudes.

Thanks.
I was hoping to avoid signal processing - never did get on with it at Uni.
I'll get reading. I just want a simple test to find out if the sensor is working...
