What are knock sensor symptoms?
There are no symptoms. The knock sensor is a passive part that does not do anything if it's not activated. Knock sensors codes on the Villager/Quest are usually caused by some other component, not the sensor itself.
What would couse a knock sensor code on a 1996 mercury villager 3.0?
Knock sensor codes on this vehicle are meaningless, the knock sensor does nothing unless the engine knocks. If you have this code there is more than likely a problem in one of the other emission-related devices, which often triggers this code first. My advice is to ignore it until another code pops up giving you more information about where to look. Do not replace the knock sensor, it will be expensive and will not stop the code from reappearing.

Any way to temporarily repair plug for Knock sensor on 1993 Chevy blazer k1500 to get it to start to get it home?
You have another problem other then the knock sensor if the engine will not start and run. A knock sensor will not cause the engine not to run.
Where is the knock sensor located on a 95 Chevy blazer?
The knock sensors yes there are two are located on either side of the motor (4.3LTR Vortec) below the heads in the center area of the engine block. There are a place for another sensor just above where the knock sensor goes but these are for other sensors.

Would code 43 electronic spark control failure cause the vehicle to not start and would replacing the knock sensor fix this or is it an ECM issue?
I have a 1990 Pontiac Safari wagon that would not start,after much testing we found one bad fuel injector replaced it and car started but ran terrible, did more testing and found bad ignition module, replaced module runs better but now have code #43 knock sensor and engine is running in default mode switched ECM no help must be knock sensor don't think knock sensor would keep car from starting but the other things mentioned here would. Hope this helps. This wagon has 3.1 engine. Havent changed knock sensor yet.
Where is the knock sensor located on a 2003 4.3L V6 silverado?
I don't think Chevy changed the location of the knock sensor. On my 1994 4.3 its on the left hand (drivers side). There are 2 sensors there, one of them is the temp gauge sending unit and the other is the knock sensor.
Where is the knock sensor on a 1993 vin w S10 Blazer?
there may be two knock sensors on that 4.3L engine. One would be on the back of the passenger side cylinder head and the other would be on the drivers side, lower engine block area.
What does the engine code knock sensor mean?
A knock sensor tells the engine computer when one or more of your engine's cylinders are "knocking", that is, exploding the air/fuel mixture in a way that delivers less power and can be damaging to the engine if prolonged. The computer uses this information to tune the engine so that it doesn't knock. If your knock sensor wasn't operating properly, so that it was always indicating a knock, the engine computer's response may have been to change the ignition timing on your engine. The knock sensor generally threads into the engine block. This code may show up intermittently or the Service engine light may be lit constantly. You may notice drivability problems including a lack of power and perhaps some hesitation. There may also be other symptoms. * The knock sensor is faulty and needs to be replaced * There is a wiring short/fault in the knock sensor circuit * Check the resistance of the knock sensor (compare it to factory specs) * Check for broken/frayed wires leading to the sensor * Replace the knock sensor
Where is the knock sensor on 1989 Chevy Celebrity 2.8?
The knock sensor on a Chevy Celebrity 2.8 L engine from 1987 thru 1990 is located on the back side of the engine(next to the firewall) below the exhaust manifold. There are actually two sensors there, one is the knock sensor, the other is the crankshaft position sensor. The knock sensor is threaded into the block with a pipe thread, the crankshaft position sensor is held in with a 10 mm screw and is near the center of the block. They are both accessible with the engine in the car, but they are a bit of a pain to get to.l
What does code P0327 for Pontiac grand prix stand for?
A knock sensor tells the engine computer when one or more of your engine's cylinders are "knocking", that is, exploding the air/fuel mixture in a way that delivers less power and can be damaging to the engine if prolonged.The computer uses this information to tune the engine so that it doesn't knock. If your knock sensor on Bank #1 is generating a low output voltage (perhaps under 0.5V), then it will trigger a P0327 DTC. This P0327 code may show up intermittently or the Service Engine light may be lit constantly. Other knock sensor related DTC codes include P0325, P0326, P0328, P0329, P0330, P0331, P0332, P0333, and P0334.SymptomsYou may notice drivability problems including fluctation engine RPM, a loss of power, and perhaps some hesitation. There may also be other symptoms. CausesPotential causes for a P0327 DTC include (but are not limited to): The knock sensor is faulty and needs to be replacedThere is a wiring open/short/fault in the knock sensor circuitThe PCM/ECM has failedPossible SolutionsVerify the resistance of the knock sensor (compare it to factory specs)Inspect for broken/frayed wires leading to the sensorCheck the wiring and connections leading to/from the knock sensor and PCM/ECMVerify proper voltage is reaching the knock sensor (e.g. 5 volts)Verify proper grounding of sensor and circuitReplace the knock sensorReplace the PCM/ECM
Where is the knock sensor on an 2002 Chevy 6.0?
That engine has 2 knock sensors in it and they are UNDERNEITH the intake manifold. You MUST remove the intake to service them. NO OTHER WAY.
