So I was pulling out of my hunting spot the other day and my check engine light came on my 2000 Tacoma. My code reader says p0325 knock sensor bank 1
I checked online cause I never even heard of a knock sensor and can't believe the price for the replacement part. Somehow I lucked out it seems with my taco as I only had to move my fuel filter out of the way to get to it. Took me about 10mins to remove.
I've heard that most vehicles have 2 sensors but I think my truck has only one since it's a 2.4L 4cyl manual. If any knows for sure please let me know.
The plug and wire seems to be in pretty good condition and I tried the "ping" test with it reinstalled with no change in voltage. Got that idea from youtube.
Since a replacement OEM part is round $170.00 and it takes me barely 30mins to complete the job, does anyone know of any reputable generic brands I could use?
