Keyless Remote Case<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Vehicle keyless remotes or key fobs are electronic chips with a battery encased in a plastic case. During regular use, keyless remote cases<\/strong><\/a> go through a lot of wear and tear as they can be placed inside pockets where they can get squeezed. Eventually, keyless remote cases can crack. Keyless remote cases also come with rubber or silicon buttons, which can also wear out and crack after several years of regular use. Getting a keyless remote case doesn’t include the chip inside that can open or close your vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kickdown Switch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The kickdown switch<\/strong><\/a> is a part that enables an automatic transmission to downshift the gearbox by multiple gears when you accelerate your vehicle after driving at a steady speed. The kickdown switch is on the floor behind the gas pedal assembly. It requires putting the accelerator pedal to the metal in older transmissions, while new transmissions automatically kickdown. The automatic transmission needs this switch to shift gears to the appropriate power band.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

King Pin Bearing Cap<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The King Pin Bearing Cap<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>is a cap that goes over a vehicle’s king pin bearings, which are the main pivots in the steering systems of tow trucks and other vehicles. You typically find king pins and their bearings on large, heavy vehicles that can tow heavier loads. Because they’re meant to bear heavy weight, king pin bearings are typically made of high grade raw materials with high resistivity and durability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

King Pin Bearing Cap Gasket<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
A King Pin Bearing Cap Gasket<\/strong><\/a> acts as a sealant between two parts. Gaskets in general are designed to withstand extreme temperatures during engine operation. They should also withstand vibrations, as well as acids and other chemicals inside the engine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gaskets should also be able to form a barrier between expanding and contracting parts while resisting expansion themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The King Pin Bearing Shim<\/a><\/strong> is a shim used to alter the king pin bearing for the steering knuckles to move without resistance\/friction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

King Pin Bushing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The King Pin Bushing<\/strong><\/a> prevents metal-to-metal contact between the axle arm and king pin, helping the latter rotate the axle arm during steering events. Typically located on both ends of the axle arm and in-axle beam, the king pin bushing is designed to withstand stress from radial loads and steering rotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

King Pin Bushing Spring<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
A king pin bushing spring<\/strong><\/a> is a large coil spring located on top of your vehicle’s steering knuckle and below your vehicle’s body. Much like your vehicle’s shock absorbers and struts, the king pin bushing spring helps cushion bumps caused by road imperfections. The king pin spring also has a bushing sandwiched between it and the steering knuckle that absorbs vibrations. When the king pin bushing spring wears out, your vehicle can shake uncontrollably once it exceeds a certain speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

King Pin Bushing Spring Retainer Plate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The king pin bushing spring retainer plate<\/strong><\/a> is a part that secures the spring of the bushing surrounding the king pin in an earlier steering system. This part might be needed if you own an older car with a steering system that uses king pins (also spelled as kingpins and king-pins) instead of ball joints. The king pin steering system needs the retainer plate to hold the bushing spring immobile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Knock Sensor Connector<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The Knock Sensor Connector<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>is a wire harness that connects to an engine’s knock sensors. Knock sensors detect high-frequency vibrations that signify engine knocking and then send this information to the powertrain control module (PCM). Using the data from the knock sensors, the PCM then adjusts the ignition timing, which results in less fuel consumption and an increase in torque. Most knock sensor connectors are made from durable wires that can withstand high engine temperatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A vehicle’s Knock Sensor Grommet<\/strong><\/a> serves to protect the knock sensor, which is in charge of sending knocking readings to the powertrain control module (PCM) in order to maximize energy yield. The rubber grommet mainly protects the sensor from mechanical damage. Some knock sensor grommets also hold the knock sensor in place. Typically, a knock sensor grommet will appear as a thick o-shaped piece of rubber with one concave side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Knock Sensor Harness<\/strong><\/a> connects an engine’s knock sensors to the powertrain control module to detect abnormal combustion. Knock sensors are tuned to the engine knock frequency, ranging from 5 to 10 kHz. A voltage signal is sent to the PCM, which retards ignition timing until the knocking ceases to prevent damage to the pistons and other engine parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Knock Sensor Module Connector<\/strong><\/a> is a component of the knock sensor module, which is designed to produce a digital output when the knock sensor detects detonation in the engine. When the module is touched, the spring attached to the module makes contact with the ground terminal and relays information to the engine control module (ECM). The ECM then adjusts ignition timing to prevent engine knock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the rear suspension, the knuckles move up and down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
