Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the knock (KS) sensor.
- Ignition ON, connect a test lamp between the signal circuit terminal 1 and ground.
- If the test lamp illuminates, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Ignition ON, connect a test lamp between the signal circuit terminal 1 and 12 volts.
- If the test lamp illuminates, test the signal circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Ignition OFF, test for 90-110 K ohms between the signal circuit terminal 1 and the low reference circuit terminal 2.
- If not within the specified range, test the circuits for an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the ECM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the KS sensor.
IMPORTANT:
If the knock sensor lead is damaged in any way, replace the knock sensor.
