No it will not.
If the knock sensor failed the CEL (Check Engine Light) would be illuminated and the engine may "ping" or "spark knock" under load. Serious "spark knock" can damage the engine if allowed to continue.
A knock sensor is a device that senses detonation. Detonation occurs in the engine when the fuel begins to burn prematurely; it can cause substantial damage to the engine.

No. It only senses engine vibration/knock.
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.
A bad knock sensor would illuminate the check engine light and allow the engine to ping (spark knock). The engine doesn't shift, the transmission shifts.
The knock sensor just advances and retards the engine timing only. If there is a noise in the engine then you have engine are valve train problems. The knock sensor will not make the engine knock.
Yes, a faulty knock sensor can lead to engine misfires and vacuum problems. The knock sensor monitors engine vibrations and helps the engine control module adjust the ignition timing to prevent knocking. If the sensor malfunctions, it may cause incorrect timing adjustments, leading to misfires, poor engine performance, and potentially affecting the vacuum system due to improper combustion. Addressing a bad knock sensor can help restore optimal engine function.
No, it will not cause the engine to knock.
The knock sensor, in your 1997 Chevrolet Lumina, can be found on the front of the engine. The knock sensor is near the top of the engine.
Yes it can hurt your engine to drive with a bad knock sensor. The knock sensor should be replaced as soon as possible.
