DTC P0325 Knock Sensor 1 Circuit Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The knock sensor is fitted to the cylinder block to detect engine knocking. This sensor contains a piezoelec-
tric element which generates a voltage when it becomes deformed, which occurs when the cylinder block
vibrates due to knocking. If engine knocking occurs, ignition timing is retarded to suppress it.

DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P0325
No knock sensor 1 signal to ECM with engine speed, 1,200
rpm or more
(2 trip detection logic)
Open or short in knock sensor 1 circuit

Knock sensor 1 (looseness)

ECM
HINT:
If the ECM detects above diagnosis conditions, it operates the fail safe function in which the corrective retard
angle value is set to the maximum value.
WIRING DIAGRAM
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand±held tester or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame records
the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected, when troubleshooting it is useful for determining
whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine warmed up or not, the air±fuel ratio lean or rich, etc.
at the time of the malfunction.

SYSTEM CHECK DRIVING PATTERN
(1) Connect the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(2) Start and warm up the engine with all accessories switched OFF.
(3) Run the vehicle at 60 ~ 80 km/h (38 ~ 50 mph) for 3 min. or more.
(4) Idle the engine for about 2 min.
(5) Do steps (3) and (4) again.
(6) Stop at safe place and turn the ignition switch OFF.
(7) Do steps (2) to (5) again.
(8) Check the READINESS TESTS mode on the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand±held tester.
If COMPL is displayed and the MIL does not light up, the system is normal.
If INCMPL is displayed and the MIL does not light up, run the vehicle again and check it.
HINT:
INCMPL is displayed when either condition (a) or (b) exists.
(a) The system check is incomplete.
(b) There is a malfunction in the system.
If there is a malfunction in the system, the MIL will light up after steps (2) to (5) above are done.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:

If DTC P0105 (Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Circuit Malfunction), P0106 (Manifold
Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Circuit Range/Performance Problem) and P0401 (Exhaust
Gas Recirculation Flow Insufficient Detected) are output simultaneously, perform troubleshooting of
DTC P0105 first.

If DTC P0401 (Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow Insufficient Detected) and P0402 (Exhaust Gas Recir-
culation Flow Excessive Detected) are output simultaneously, perform troubleshooting of DTC P0402
first.

Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand±held tester or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame
records the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected, when troubleshooting it is useful for
determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine warmed up or not, the air±fuel
ratio lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:

If DTC P0441 (Evaporative Emission Control System Incorrect Purge Flow), P0446 (Evaporative
Emission Control System Vent Control Malfunction), P0450 (Evaporative Emission Control System
Pressure Sensor Malfunction) or P0451 is output after DTC P0440 (Evaporative Emission Control Sys-
tem Malfunction), first troubleshoot DTC P0441, P0446, P0450 or P0451. If no malfunction is detected,
troubleshoot DTC P0440 next.

Ask the customer whether, after the MIL came on, the customer found the fuel tank cap loose and tight-
ened it. Also ask the customer whether the fuel tank cap was loose when refuelling. If the fuel tank cap
was not loose, it was the cause of the DTC. If the fuel tank cap was not loose or if the customer was
not sure if it was loose, troubleshoot according to the following procedure.

Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand±held tester or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame
records the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected, when troubleshooting it is useful for
determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine warmed up or not, the air±fuel
ratio lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.

When the ENGINE RUN TIME in the freeze frame data is less than 200 seconds, carefully check the
VSV for EVAP, charcoal canister and vapor pressure sensor.

apply vacuum 4.0 kPa (30 mmHg, 1.18 in.Hg) to the
vapor pressure sensor.
NOTICE:
The vacuum applied to the vapor pressure sensor must be
less than 66.7 kPa (500 mmHg, 19.7 in.Hg).
