1. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND KNOCK SENSOR  .
   1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
   2. Disconnect the connector from ECM.
   3. Measure the resistance between ECM connectors.

      Connector & terminal 

      (E158) No. 19 - (E158) No. 6:

   Is the resistance less than 500 kΩ?

   Yes: Go to  2 .

   No: Go to  3 .

2. CHECK KNOCK SENSOR  .
   1. Disconnect the connector from the knock sensor.
   2. Measure the resistance between knock sensor terminals.

      Terminals 

      No. 1 - No. 2:

   Is the resistance less than 500 kΩ?

   Yes: Replace the knock sensor. Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (H4DO)>KNOCK SENSOR .

   No: Repair the short circuit between lines in the harness between the ECM connector and knock sensor connector.

   NOTE: The harness between both connectors are shielded. Remove the shield and repair the short circuit of harness.
3. CHECK INPUT SIGNAL OF ECM  .
   1. Connect the ECM.
   2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
   3. Measure the voltage between ECM connector and chassis ground.

      Connector & terminal 

      (E158) No. 6 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

   Is the voltage 2 V or more?

   Yes: Even if DTC is detected, the circuit has returned to a normal condition at this time. Reproduce the failure, and then perform the diagnosis again.

   NOTE: In this case, temporary poor contact of connector, temporary open or short circuit of harness may be the cause.

   No: Repair the short circuit to ground in harness between ECM connector and knock sensor connector.

   NOTE: The harness between both connectors are shielded. Remove the shield and repair the short circuit of harness.
