DESCRIPTION

A flat-type knock sensor (non-resonant type) has a structure that can detect vibrations between approximately 5 kHz and 15 kHz.
Knock sensors are fitted onto the engine block to detect engine knocking.
Each knock 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.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The knock sensor, located on the cylinder block, detects spark knock. When spark knock occurs, the piezoelectric element of the sensor vibrates. When the ECM detects a voltage in this frequency range, it retards the ignition timing to suppress the spark knock.
The ECM also senses background engine noise with the knock sensor and uses this noise to check for faults in the sensor. If the knock sensor signal level is too low for more than 10 seconds, or if the knock sensor output voltage is outside the normal range, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the knock sensor and stores a DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

  1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
  3. Clear DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC operation).
  4. Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
  5. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
  6. Start the engine and wait 5 minutes.
  7. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
  8. Read the pending DTCs.
    HINT:
    1. If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
    2. If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
  9. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.
  10. Input the DTC: P0327, P0328, P032C, P032D, P0332, P0333, P033C or P033D.
  11. Check the DTC judgment result.

    GTS Display
    		Description
    NORMAL
    1. DTC judgment completed
    2. System normal
    ABNORMAL
    1. DTC judgment completed
    2. System abnormal
    INCOMPLETE
    1. DTC judgment not completed
    2. Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions
    N/A
    1. Unable to perform DTC judgment
    2. Number of DTCs which do not fulfill DTC preconditions has reached ECU memory limit
    HINT:
    1. If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
    2. If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
    3. If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE or N/A, idle the engine for 5 minutes and check the DTC judgment result again.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
  1. DTCs P0327 and P0328 are for the bank 1 sensor 1 knock sensor circuit.
  2. DTCs P032C and P032D are for the bank 1 sensor 2 knock sensor circuit.
  3. DTCs P0332 and P0333 are for the bank 2 sensor 1 knock sensor circuit.
  4. DTCs P033C and P033D are for the bank 2 sensor 2 knock sensor circuit.
  5. Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. 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.
  6. Bank 1 refers to the bank that includes the No. 1 cylinder*.
    *: The No. 1 cylinder is the cylinder which is farthest from the transmission.
  7. Bank 2 refers to the bank that does not include the No. 1 cylinder.
