Not at all. It is a very labor intensive job which includes removing the entire air intake. There are two knock sensors and getting to them both is difficult. My mechanic took almost 7 hours in total. Best (but most expensive) bet is to have the work done by an Infiniti dealer.
Where is the knock sensor in a 1999 Infinity I30?
a swivel socket
Electronic spark control is not receiving sinal from knock sensor Try replacing knock sensor
Yes.
The knock sensor is located under the manifold on the rear of the engine near the fire wall. You will need to get a new manifold gasket as this will have to be replaced after the knock sensor is reached.
the knock sensor cuts the engine out so it won't damage the car if not replaced, the car just won't work.
Try eBay Motors
The price is around $50 to $100 for the sensor and about 30-40 minuets to change when cool.
The knock sensor is located on the left side of the block. Often the steering shaft will contact and wrap the wiring harness around it, braking the connector. You should check this first, before replacing the sensor.
LS does not have a knock sensor. GSR does have a knock sensor
Never mind, I got my answer.
The Knock sensor is located under the intake manifold... in between the Engine Main body and Spark Plug Housing... Its easier to see when the Air intake system & battery housing are removed look down into the crevices...
