Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
The knock sensor system enables the engine control module (ECM) to control the ignition timing for the best possible performance while protecting
the engine from potentially damaging levels of detonation. The knock sensor produces an AC voltage signal that varies depending on the vibration
level during engine operation. The ECM adjusts the spark timing based on the amplitude and the frequency of the knock sensor signal. The ECM
receives the knock sensor signal through 2 isolated signal circuits for each bank. The ECM learns a minimum knock sensor noise level for all of the
RPM range. The ECM monitors for a normal knock sensor signal. The ECM monitors the internal knock sensor processor by verifying a 20 KHz
signal generated on the output circuit is detected on the return circuit.
Conditions for Running the DTC
P0324, P0326 and P0331-Excessive Knock Detection Mode
* Engine speed is between 400-8,500 RPM.
* The engine coolant temperature (ECT) is warmer than -40掳C (-40掳F).
* The intake air temperature (IAT) is warmer than -40掳C (-40掳F).
* The DTCs run continuously when the above conditions are met.
P0324, P0326 and P0331-Abnormal Noise Detection Mode-Improperly Bolted Knock Sensor
* Engine speed is between 2,200-8,500 RPM.
* The ECT is warmer than -40掳C (-40掳F).
* The IAT is warmer than -40掳C (-40掳F).
* The DTCs run continuously when the above conditions are met.
P0325, P0327, P0328, P0330, P0332, and P0333
* Engine speed is between 400-8,500 RPM.
* The ECT is warmer than -40掳C (-40掳F).
* The IAT is warmer than -40掳C (-40掳F).
* The DTCs run continuously when the above conditions are met.
P06B6 and P06B7
* Engine speed is between 400-4,000 RPM.
* The ECT is warmer than -40掳C (-40掳F).
* The IAT is warmer than -40掳C (-40掳F).
* The DTCs run continuously when the above conditions are met.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
P0324
The ECM detects that the knock sensor signal indicates an excessive engine knock is present for greater than 10 s for at least 1 single cylinder.
