Best Answer

The knock sensor is located on left side (drivers side) of the throttle body. Disconnect the connector and then remove the holding the sensor in place. You will need a 12mm socket and long extension to reach the sensor. Positioning the new sensor may be the most difficult part due to an inability to each it effectively but it is possible. Make sure to tighten the bolt to no more than 15 ft-lbs of torque or you could ruin it. Once you have completed this, you should be all set but you may need to reset the computer to clear the check engine light.
