Notes:

Knock Sensor (KS) 1 -G61- and Knock Sensor
(KS) 2 -G66- themselves cannot be electrically
tested.
Use only gold-plated terminals when servicing
harness connector for knock sensors.
For the knock sensors to function properly, it is
important that tightening torque be exactly 20
Nm.
Check harness connector from knock sensor to
wiring harness for corrosion.

Check knock sensors

Note:
Coolant reservoir screws must be removed and coolant reservoir must be
placed to side in order to access harness connector for knock sensor for
bank 2. The coolant hoses can remain connected. - Disconnect the harness connector of the relevant knock sensor in
engine compartment.

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 ECM, do not
connect ECM Page 24
-17
.
- Check the following wire connections for open circuit and short circuit
to Ground (GND) and B+:
