>> GO TO 2.

2.PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

Start engine and run it for at least 5 seconds at idle speed.
Check 1st trip DTC.

Is 1st trip DTC detected? YES >> Proceed to EC-275, "Diagnosis Procedure".

NO >> INSPECTION END

Diagnosis Procedure

1.CHECK KNOCK SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT

Turn ignition switch OFF.
Disconnect knock sensor harness connector.
Disconnect ECM harness connector.
Check the continuity between knock sensor harness connector and ECM harness connector.

Also check harness for short to power.

Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 2.

NO >> Repair or replace error-detected parts.

2.CHECK KNOCK SENSOR INPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT

Check the continuity between knock sensor harness connector and ECM harness connector.

Also check harness for short to ground and to power.

Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 3.

NO >> Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.

3.CHECK KNOCK SENSOR

Check knock sensor. Refer to EC-276, "Component Inspection (KS)".

Is the inspection result normal? YES >> Check intermittent incident. Refer to GI-39, "Intermittent Incident".

NO >> Replace knock sensor. Refer to EM-94, "Exploded View".

Component Inspection (KS)

1.CHECK KNOCK SENSOR

Turn ignition switch OFF.
Disconnect knock sensor harness connector.
Check resistance between knock sensor terminals as per the following.

NOTE:

It is necessary to use an ohmmeter which can measure more than 10 MΩ.

CAUTION:

CAUTION:

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

Is the inspection result normal? YES >> INSPECTION END

NO >> Replace knock sensor. Refer to EM-94, "Exploded View".
