Knock Sensor: Testing and Inspection

If the PCM malfunctions in a manner which will not allow proper diagnosis of the KS circuits, DTC P0325 will set.

DTCs P0327 and P0332 are designed to diagnose the knock sensors, and related wiring, so problems encountered with the KS system should set a DTC. However, if no DTC was set but the KS system is suspect because detonation was the customer's complaint, refer to Detonation/Spark Knock in Symptoms.
