Check wires from knock sensors to Engine Control Module (ECM). - Check all three terminals at knock sensor connector for short circuit to
each other (terminal 1+2, 1+3, 2+3).

Specification: (no continuity) - the wires must not have any
connection to each other
- If there is no connection , replace knock sensor.
- If no short circuit is detected, check knock sensor wires:
- Connect VAG1598/31 test box at wiring harness to Engine Control
Module (ECM), do not connect ECM Page 24
