WIRING DIAGRAM:

STEPCHECKYESNO

1.CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN KNOCK SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR.

1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

2) Disconnect the connectors from ECM and knock sensor.

3) Measure the resistance between ECM harness connector and knock sensor connector.

Connector & terminal

(B134) No. 15 — (E14) No. 1:
(B134) No. 29 — (E14) No. 2:

Is the resistance less than 5 Ω?

Repair the harness and connector.

NOTE:

In this case, repair the following item:

Open circuit of harness between knock sensor and ECM connector

Poor contact of knock sensor connector

Poor contact of coupling connector

2.CHECK KNOCK SENSOR.

1) Measure the resistance between knock sensor connector terminals.

Terminals

No. 2 — No. 1:

Is the resistance 700 kΩ or more?

Repair the harness and connector.

NOTE:

In this case, repair the following item:

Poor contact of knock sensor connector

Poor contact of coupling connector

3.CHECK INSTALLATION CONDITION OF KNOCK SENSOR.

Is the knock sensor installation bolt tightened securely?
