CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
A flat type knock sensor (non±resonant type) has the structure that can detect the vibration in a wider band
of frequency from about 6 kHz to 15 kHz and has the following features.
Knock sensors are fitted on the right bank and left bank of the cylinder block to detect engine knocking.
Each knock sensor contains a piezoelectric element which generates voltage when it becomes deformed.
Generation of the voltage occurs when the cylinder block vibrates due to knocking. If engine knocking oc-
curs, the ignition timing is retarded in order to suppress the knocking.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The knock sensor located on the cylinder block detects spark knock.
When spark knock occurs, the sensor pick±up vibrates in a specific frequency range. When the ECM detects
the voltage in this frequency range, it retards the ignition timing to suppress the spark knock.
If there is a defect in the knock sensor or an open or short circuit, the voltage level will deviate outside the
normal operating range. The ECM interprets this deviation as a defect in the knock sensor and sets a DTC.
Example:
When the knock sensor voltage output is less than 0.5 V, or more than 4.5 V, and if either the condition contin-
ues for more than 3 sec.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:

DTC P0325, P0327 and P0328 are for the bank 1 knock sensor circuit.

DTC P0330, P0332 and P0333 are for the bank 2 knock sensor circuit.

Read freeze frame data using the hand±held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions
when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the
vehicle was running or stopped, 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.

DTC P0335 Crankshaft Position Sensor ºAº Circuit
DTC P0339 Crankshaft Position Sensor ºAº Circuit In-
termittent
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The crankshaft position sensor system consists of a crankshaft position sensor plate and a pick±up coil.
The sensor plate has 32 teeth and is installed on the crankshaft. The pick±up coil is made of an iron core
and magnet. The sensor plate rotates and as each tooth passes through the pick±up coil, a pulse signal is
created. The pick±up coil generates 32 signals for each engine revolution. Based on these signals, the ECM
calculates the crankshaft position and engine RPM. Using these calculations, the fuel injection time and igni-
tion timing are controlled.
