Terminal and Connector inspection
1.

Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness and terminal connections.

Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage.

2.

Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.

3.

Has a problem been found?

▶ Repair as necessary and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure

▶ Go to " Signal Circuit Inspection " procedure.

Signal Circuit Inspection
■ Check voltage
1.

IG "OFF" and disconnect knock sensor connector.

2.

IG "ON".

3.

Measure voltage between low signal terminal of knock sensor harness connector and chassis ground.

4.

Measure voltage between high signal terminal of knock sensor harness connector and chassis ground.

Specification : Approx. 1.6V

5.

Is the measured voltage within specification ?

▶ Go to "Component Inspection" procedure.

▶ Go to "Check Open or Short in signal circuit" procedure.

■ Check Open or Short in signal circuit
6.

IG "OFF" and disconnect knock sensor connector and ECM connector.

7.

Measure the resistance between low signal terminal of knock sensor harness connector and knock low signal terminal of the ECM harness connector.

8.

Measure the resistance between high signal terminal of knock sensor harness connector and knock high signal terminal of the ECM harness connector. .

Specification : Below 1Ω

9.

Is the measured resistance within specifications ?

▶ Repair Short to ground in signal circuit and then, go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

▶ Repair Open in signal circuit and then, go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
