NOTE :
After installing the engine coolant temperature sensor, check the coolant level.
Knock Sensor
Description
The knock sensor is attached to the cylinder block. The knock sensor is designed to detect engine vibration that is
caused by detonation.
Operation
When the knock sensor detects a knock in one of the cylinders, it sends an input signal to the Engine Control Module
(ECM). In response, the ECM retards ignition timing for all cylinders by a specified amount.
The knock sensor contains a piezoelectric material which constantly vibrates and sends an input voltage (signal) to
the ECM while the engine operates. As the intensity of the vibration increases, the knock sensor output voltage also
increases.
The ECM ignores knock sensor input during engine idle conditions. Once the engine speed exceeds a specified
value, knock retard is allowed.
Removal & Installation
1. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect the knock sensor electrical connector.
3. Remove the knock sensor retaining bolt (1) and
remove the knock sensor.
(Tighten: Knock sensor retaining bolt to 20 N·m)
4. Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
Oxygen Sensor
Description
This vehicle is equipped with two oxygen sensors (upstream oxygen sensor & downstream oxygen sensor). The oxy-
gen sensors are located before and after the three way catalyst. The oxygen sensors continually monitor the oxygen
level in the exhaust gas. The sensor is made of ceramic zirconia. The zirconia generates voltage from approximately
1 volt in richer conditions to 0 volt in leaner conditions.
Operation
The O2 sensors produce voltages from 0 to 1 volt, depending upon the oxygen content of the exhaust gas. When a
large amount of oxygen is present (caused by a lean air/fuel mixture, can be caused by misfire and exhaust leaks),
the sensors produces a low voltage. When there is a lesser amount of oxygen present (caused by a rich air/fuel
mixture, can be caused by internal engine problems) it produces a higher voltage. By monitoring the oxygen content
and converting it to electrical voltage, the sensors act as a rich-lean switch.
The oxygen sensors are equipped with a heating element that keeps the sensors at proper operating temperature
during all operating modes. Maintaining correct sensor temperature at all times allows the system to enter into closed
loop operation sooner. Also, it allows the system to remain in closed loop operation during periods of extended idle.

Knock Sensor
Description
The knock sensor is attached to the cylinder block. The knock sensor is designed to detect engine vibration that is
caused by detonation.
Operation
When the knock sensor detects a knock in one of the cylinders, it sends an input signal to the ECM. In response, the
ECM retards ignition timing for all cylinders by a scheduled amount.
Knock sensors contain a piezoelectric material which constantly vibrates and sends an input voltage (signal) to the
ECM while the engine operates. As the intensity of the vibration increases, the knock sensor output voltage also
increases.
The voltage signal produced by the knock sensor increases with the amplitude of vibration. The ECM receives an
input knock sensor voltage signal. If the signal rises above a predetermined level, the ECM will store that value in
memory and retard ignition timing to reduce engine knock. If the knock sensor voltage exceeds a present value, the
ECM retards ignition timing for all cylinders. It is not a selective cylinder retard.
The ECM ignores knock sensor input signal during engine idle conditions. Once the engine speed exceeds a spec-
ified value, knock retard is allowed.
Removal & Installation
1. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect the knock sensor electrical connector.
3. Remove the knock sensor retaining bolt (1) andremove the knock sensor.

Operation
The primary purpose of a cooling system is to maintain engine temperature in a range that will provide satisfactory
engine performance and emission levels under all expected driving conditions. It also provides hot coolant for heater
performance and cooling for automatic transmission oil. This is done by transferring heat from engine metal to cool-
ant, moving the heated coolant to the radiator, and then transferring the heat to the ambient air. Engine Coolant Flow Diagram - 1.6L & 1.8L & 2.0L

Cooling System Pressure Test
WARNING!
Always allow the engine to cool before opening the cooling system. Do not remove the coolant pressure relief
cap when the engine is operating or the cooling system is hot. The cooling system is under pressure; steam and
hot liquid can come out forcefully when the cap is loosened slightly. Failure to follow these instructions may
result in serious personal injury.
CAUTION:
Do not pressurize the cooling system beyond the maximum pressure listed in the specifications
table in this section, or cooling system components can be damaged.
1. Turn the engine off.
2. Check the engine coolant level. Adjust the coolant level as necessary.
3. Attach the pressure tester to the coolant recovery reservoir. Install a pressure test pump to the quick-connectfitting of the test adapter.
4. Pressurize the engine cooling system to 111 kPa. Observe the gauge reading for approximately 2 minutes. Pres- sure should not drop during this time. If the pressure drops within this time, inspect for leaks and repair as nec-
essary.
5. If no leaks are found and the pressure drops, the pressure relief cap may be leaking. Install a new pressure relief cap and retest the system.
6. If no leaks are found after a new pressure relief cap is installed, and the pressure drops, the leak may be inter- nal to the radiator transmission cooler (if equipped). Inspect the coolant for transmission fluid and the transmis-
sion fluid for coolant. Repair as necessary.
7. If there is no contamination of the coolant or transmission fluid, the leak may be internal to the engine. Inspect the coolant for engine oil and the engine oil for coolant.
8. Release the system pressure by loosening the pressure relief cap. Check the coolant level and adjust as nec- essary.
Cooling System Concentration Test
CAUTION:
Do not mix types of coolant, corrosion protection will be severely reduced.
Coolant concentration should be checked when any additional coolant is added to the cooling system or after a cool-
ant drain, flush and refill. The coolant mixture offers optimum engine cooling and protection against corrosion when
mixed to a freeze point of -37°C to -46°C. The use of a hydrometer or a refractometer can be used to test coolant
concentration.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Perform the following procedure when filling the cooling system.1. Fill the system using the proper mixture of anti- freeze/coolant and water. Fill the coolant recovery
reservoir to the MAXline and install the pressure
cap.
2. With the heater control in the HEAT position, start and operate the engine with coolant recovery reservoir cap in place.
3. Add coolant to the coolant recovery reservoir as necessary. Only add coolant to the coolant recovery reservoir when the engine is cold. Coolant level in a warm engine will be higher due to thermal expansion.
Thermostat
Description
The thermostat is located in the thermostat housing. The thermostat housing is located on the top of the engine
between the engine and the radiator.
Operation
The thermostat controls the operating temperature of the engine by controlling the amount of engine coolant flow to
the radiator. The thermostat opens when the engine coolant temperature is approximately 90°C. At this temperature,
engine coolant is allowed to flow to the radiator. The thermostat provides quick engine warm up and overall temper-
ature control. The thermostat begins to close below 90°C. The thermostat controls this by the use of a wax pellet
located in a sealed container at the spring end of the thermostat. When heated, the pellet expands and overcomes
the closing spring tension to force the valve to open, and when cooled, the pellet contracts and the closing spring
then forces the valve to close.
