A current detecting device comprises a substrate, a magnetism sensing member made of ferromagnetic magnetoresistance element, an insulating member, and a conducting member, and these members are formed by a photolithography technique such that the magnetism sensing member is electrically isolated from the conducting member by the insulating member. When a current flows into the conducting member, the magnetism sensing member responds to a magnetic field generated by the current. At this time, the resistance of the magnetism sensing member changes due to a magnetoresistance effect in accordance with the intensity of the current. Therefore, the current can be measured by detecting the resistance change. In such a current detecting device, there is no reactance component thereby achieving high sensitivity when detecting the current.

A vehicle height sensor includes a switching circuit which is turned on and off in accordance with a vehicle height. When a drive signal is outputted to the vehicle height sensor, the vehicle height sensor is activated. A connector is connected to an output side of the switching circuit. A digital vehicle height data signal is transmitted from the switching circuit via the connector. A preset signal is outputted from the vehicle height sensor to the connector when a check signal is generated. The preset signal represents preset check data. A data receives the preset signal via the connector and reads the check data from the preset signal. The read check data is compared with a predetermined reference data. The connector is judged to be wrong when the read check data differs from the reference data.

In a knock detecting apparatus for an internal combustion engine, a comparator receives at one input a knock detection signal from a knock sensor and at the other input a knock discrimination level signal produced by a knock discrimination level generator in accordance with the knock detection signal of the knock sensor. A mask circuit inhibits the passage of the comparison output signal of the comparator during a period in which a number of noises are generated from the internal combustion engine and at the same time interrupts the operation of the knock discrimination level generator.
