      I have a GS knock sensor he lets me know when some one is at the front door. Riley is my German Shepard great dog but he still will not ride under the hood when we go for a drive..

      Hey Scotty is it possible a bad knock sensor on a 92 22re Yota can actually cause a detonation/knock sound(No diagnostic codes)? I tried pushing down on the pistons to check for bad rod bearings but seems ok.. Blowby is bad though.. : ( I eventually replaced the AFM after it was having major hesitation issues, but not before messin with the throttle body and installing a new tps(Calibration was/is a pain in the axx). The afm was the issue but now I'm having delayed shift issues and knock at higher rpms..? Meh..

    About a year ago, I had to replace the knock sensor on our '02 Mercury Villager (Nissan Quest) 3.3L. It wasn't quite as easy as the vehicle in this video. :) Not difficult, just time-consuming.

    Too bad the 2 knock sensors in my '95 Avalon aren't this easy to get to--I really hate to have to pull a perfectly working intake manifold to get to 'em--afraid when it's all back together the intake manifold will leak/won's seal up right.....

    Pulled the knock sensor off my 94 sierra k1500. Didnt realize it goes through the coolant. There was antifreeze everywhere.
    Dont know if this is the same for all cars, but if you dont know at least have a pan ready. It'll save you a big mess to clean up.

    always appreciate these guys, but it is always nice to hear the before engine running, and after....id like to know what the noise was, how the car sounded before, that got you to hook up the Code Reader??? Always a good help for early indicators....like....was the engine sounding like the Rockers where Clacking??? You know, would lead one to think ohhh heck something more catastrophic...but really the Knock censor was shorting the Engine, causing an out of Balance, and a scary resemblance to bearings or Rockers wear....i dont know....I got me a Knock....and guess what im going to check soon?.....Thanks Kilmer

    @scottykilmer I see that you did a short video on replacing a bad nox sensor. However you didn't go into depth on just how important the nox sensor is. Many people just wouldn't think that it is too important and keep on driving on it. Can we get a thorough video on the Nox Sensor please?

  • @xfatal_hdx251

  • @ff5gus
    @ff5gus 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That was one hell of a fire, with a nice rescue of that construction worker...... What is the knock sensor sensing? Mechanical movements, or gas air mixture?

    • @scottykilmer
      @scottykilmer  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      it senses knocking sounds. so if pistons start knocking, it tells the computer. Of course if something is loose and knocks, it can also set it off (computers being as they are, only being able to understand 0 or 1.)

  • @jeffquinones7532

    @scottykilmer I mean if the Nox Sensor is uncovering a knock in your engine then couldn't that mean other things are actually wrong with your vehicle? What could they be? If the Nox Sensor trips then could there be engine damage already done?

  • @Perly53
    @Perly53 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Unfortunately, Scotty, on my 95 Volvo 850, you have to remove the intake manifold to get to it, along with a lot of other stuff. So it's a pain in the a$$. But I have to get it done because my smog check is coming up. Code 0331, Knock Sensor, Bank 2.

  • @paulhawkins8872

    Hi Scotty, Jaco here from South Africa. Just want some guidance. I bought a 2004 Nissan Almera 1.6 Twincam from a working buddy. This car has been standing for about a year hut according to him they took the car to nissan to diagnose and they said its the Mass Airflow sensor. They went to buy another one from the scrapyard and fitted it but the problem was still on the car. Can it be that the computer threw away memory or what may the problem be? Symtoms of the problem is that it starts and revs are at about 2000rpms and as soon as it ran quite a long while and the engine is warm, the revs are jumping around between 1200rpms and 2000rpms. Thanx so much for an awesome channel

    Hey Scotty I have a 2007 ford fusion se v6 and the moon roof wont open. There Is no noise from the moon roof when I press the switch. .The connector looked good at the switch I figure it could possibly be a bad fuse. if so where is the fuse located for the moon roof on a 2007 ford fusion se v6.The box is not labeled and I cant find anything on line for the life of me.

    I have a 2006 Impala 3.9L. I'd been getting a Service Traction Control message for over a year. It would happen every time I punched it from a stop. When the message appeared, the car became grabby when taking off and shifting. Once it was shut off for about 10 seconds, it would clear and shift smoothly again. Yesterday, I was driving it on the freeway like the +200k beater it is. It did fine, but when I got off onto a residential street, it died at an intersection. I managed to restart it and limp it down to a driveway where it died again. After many cycles of cranking and dying, the battery went flat and I called AAA. I charged the battery at home and it started right up, but now the STC message won't go away, and it knocks like a hungry salesman. Of course, it still runs like crap. I got a camshaft position sensor error from my OBD scanner, but I don't think it could cause the knock I''m hearing. It increases with the rpms, whether the car is in drive, park or neutral.

    Scotty how many miles did that Impala have? That thing has been through a few wars. Also, would it hurt to put up some mesh around the knock sensor so that rocks and stones can't hit the knock sensor if it's down at the bottom of the motor?

    • @scottykilmer

      you could put a mesh if you want, the car was just basically beaten to hell, it had 90 something thousand on the clock

    Hi Scotty, My 2001 Maxima is knocking and I hope that if I replace the knock sensor it will sound better. But i'm not showing a P0330 code. Do you think i'm wasting my time since its a pain in the ass reach?

  • @austinbutler1985
    @austinbutler1985 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Scotty Kilmer, I've got an 02 S10 4.3. I bought the truck and drove it around a bit in town always under 50 mph. On the 4th of July we went to the lake and the moment I jumped on the highway at 65 mph the "service engine soon" light came on. The code was P0327 knock sensor. I have no issues with the truck. It drives fine. So I change the sensor and with the battery disconnected which I believe will reset the codes?? And the light was off after replacement completion. So I jumped back on the highway and the light came right back on.
    Do you have any troubleshooting tips?
    Thanks!

    • @scottykilmer
      @scottykilmer  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Austin Butler live with it, but the sensor is probably weak. It's a pain changing that sensor, and if it runs fine, you can leave it. But you will have to fix it for the next state inspection

  • @890slay

    Hey Scotty, autozone scanned for codes and told me I had codes P0300,P0303,P0306.. But a shop we took our 09 Accord to didn't say it had a P0303 that it had P0330 instead, is it possible the knock sensor is causing my random misfire? The shop claimed the camshaft bank #2 was worn due to lack of lubrication but I don't see how that would cause a random misfire, wouldn't it be somewhat constant? Later this week I am going to open it up and check for myself but I just wanted to see if there's other possibilities before doing so.

    • @scottykilmer
      @scottykilmer  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      yes, they can do that, as knock sensors effect engine timing

      Paul Komarek most cars only use one, excepting some high end V engines

    When I started on my 1995 buick century I heard a loud pop engine sputtered and died. Restarted would only stay on if I gave it throttle. Made it home hitting only right turns then looked under hood and heard vacuum leak. Knock sensor was off the fitting.. My guess is when I started the car it popped off? what causes this?
    About a week ago i used lucas fuel injector ad upper cylinder cleaner

    scotty, i have a 2006 ford f150 5.4 4x4, i was having a code p0351, for coil pack cyl 1, anyway, i replaced it, and it seems to have fixed the poor idle, i cleared all codes, and drove it down the road and back, i have what feels like power loss, almost like something is holding the engine back, i hear pinging while accelerating,, i rescanned, even tho i do not have a check engine light, now i get a code for knock sensor, from what i understand, a bad knock sensor will do this,,,, also, if this is the problem, is this something a shop should handle, I am mechanical, but not a mechanic,, i do hvac for a living,,, please help! thank you!!

    Is it bad to drive with a P0330? I have a 1996 4Runner SR5 and it's the only code I have. I am noticing a small loss of power in acceleration.

      knock sensor codes often do very little, i've seen guys drive em 5 years that way with no real problems

    I always wonder why some people don't take care of their car. They just drive it until it practically dies.

    I have a trouble code P0441 something about a purge, on a 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland can you help with that?

    • @scottykilmer
      @scottykilmer  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      pray it's just a bad evap cannister purge valve, places like auto zone can sell you one and show it's location on their computer screen.

    Hey scott.. this is off topic.
    If your window won't go up, what should i do? The window wants to go up, but it's making noise and just stays down. What should i do?

    • @Medic1911
      @Medic1911 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      the regulator is probably broken, or the tabs that connect the regulator to the window.

    • @scottykilmer
      @scottykilmer  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      yep, see my video "fixing broken power windows" and replace the regulator or the whole motor regulator assembly, some are sold as a unit

    Hey scotty , i have a Mazda mpv lx and the oil pan gasket is leaking oil,plus a o2 sensor need to be replaced .we have blue smoke when we start the car.can we fix this ourself .thanks

    • @scottykilmer
      @scottykilmer  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      blue smoke is serious, means the engine is burning metal and oil, often worn valve seals and or worn piston rings. You can't fix that yourself. The oil pan gasket and sensor you can do, but probably, engine is just flat wearing out.

    Hello sir, I recently just replaced my knock sensor on my 99 es300, do you why the code always come back up after I reach around 4 thousand rpm? It works fine under 2-3000 but if it exceed 4000 the code p0330 will pop up it bothers me a lot.

    • @scottykilmer
      @scottykilmer  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      if engine has internal wear and knocks at that rpm, it would show internal engine problem like rod or valves knocking

    I bought off brand knock sensors and they didn't work so now I'm noticing that the connectors are loose is there anyway that I can make them tighter without buying wire harness

    • @scottykilmer
      @scottykilmer  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Damiyon Wood I personally solder wiring onto the sensors, then solder that wiring into the wiring harness

    Hey bud I have a 05 silverado with the 5.3 liter engine and I have the knock sensor code and have replaced both knock sensors and the wiring harness. Also have traced the wires as far as I can and can't find anything wrong? Any suggestions?

    • @scottykilmer
      @scottykilmer  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      well, if wiring is good, either you got crappy non oem sensors, the main computer is shorted out for that circuit, or the engine is actually knocking and that sets the codes

    • @JusTryNc
      @JusTryNc 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Did buy cheap sensors so i may give that a try..
