Bad news, this morning I started it and had a code again. I checked the freeze frame info and it showed that it triggered when in open loop mode. That would be either a cold engine, or full throttle situation. So does that mean that my knock sensor is bad, or can it be something else? or is it only a problem with a cold engine and it works fine once the engine warms up? or does the info only get transmitted on the next cold start, even though the sensor is continuously bad?
If I wanted to check the ohms on the factory installed knock sensor, how would I do it? I guess I would have to pull the jack from the valve cover, then test the pins on the firewall side of the connector, right? If so, how do I test them and which one do I test. I know I'm looking at the bottom two wires on the right. I would like to test the sensor so I know it's bad before I invest in the parts to do a KS relocation. Do I just put the ohm meter across those two pins? What reading should I get?
