DESCRIPTION
A flat type knock control sensor (non-resonant type) has a structure that can detect vibration between approximately 6 kHz and 15 kHz. Knock control sensors are fitted onto the engine block to detect engine knocking.The knock control sensor contains a piezoelectric element which generates a voltage when it becomes deformed.The voltage is generated when the engine block vibrates due to knocking. Any occurrence of engine knocking can be suppressed by delaying the ignition timing.DTC No.
| DTC Detection Condition
| Trouble Area
|
P0327
| Output voltage of knock control sensor is 0.5 V or less (1 trip detection logic)
| - Short in knock control sensor circuit
- Knock control sensor
- ECM
|
P0328
| Output voltage of knock control sensor is 4.5 V or more (1 trip detection logic)
| - Open in knock control sensor circuit
- Knock control sensor
- ECM
|
- HINT:
- When any of DTCs P0327 and P0328 are set, the ECM enters fail-safe mode. During fail-safe mode, the ignition timing is delayed to its maximum retardation. Fail-safe mode continues until the ignition switch is turned off.

WIRING DIAGRAM
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- HINT:
- Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
