KNOCK SENSOR




Check resistance between knock sensor terminal 1 and ground.

NOTE: It is necessary to use an ohmmeter which can measure more than 10 MOhms.

Resistance: Approximately 532 - 588 kOhms [at 20 °C (68 °F)]

CAUTION: Do not use any knock sensors that have been dropped or physically damaged. Use only new ones.
