The knock sensor is located under the intake manifold. Not an easy job to change without some experience.

  • Steve Hembree Jan 23, 2015

    The knock sensor symtoms for this villager is that all of a sudden without anything else happening, the engine will rough idle. It can still be driven barely. If you are on the freeway, it will smooth out somewhat at higher speeds. Once you slow down, the rough idle will return. Changing the knock sensor requires removing the upper and lower intakes and it is not easy. Someone with basic mechanic experience can do the job but allow 2 days to complete the work. Change the timing belt while verything is apart.

SOURCE: Code reader knock sensor where is it located

According to the Haynes manual it is under the intake manifold, Upper and lower intake manifolds must be removed for access. If you go to Auto Zone, they have the sensor and can give you the step by step instructions to replacing the knock sensor with common tools. Good luck and hope this help.

I have a PT 2010 & the diagnostic codes are PO340, PO344 and PO325. mechanic is suggesting replacing the cam shaft post sensor & didn't even mention the knock sensor. Am I dealing with 1 or 2 issues

you are dealing with 2 issues
code p 0325 refers to knock sensor (KS) 1 bank 1--circuit malfunction ====causes ---wiring ---poor connection ---KS
code p 0340 refers to camshaft position sensor(CMP) sensor A bank 1--circuit malfunction===causes wiring--- CMP sensor ---ECM
code p 0344 refers to CMP sensor A bank 1 --circuit intermittent===causes --wiring --poor connection---CMP sensor --ECM
check wiring and connections before replacing the CMP as the wiring may be the cause of all the codes

I have an 02 jeep liberty stalls after warm and is throwing multiple knock sensor codes p0325, p0330 help

P0325, P0330 are both knock sensor codes that are detected by your ECU. Considering that you are showing both codes indicates that your model trim level is either "Limited" or "Renegade" that will have a knock sensor for 2 banks (V6). Knock sensor errors will change the timing of your engine ignition and can lead to a drop in performance or worse, lead to engine stalling in order to save other components of your engine.
The common solution to remove knock sensor codes is to have the sensors replaced by an authorized mechanic; sometimes shorted electrical leads to the sensors are also a cause for the codes. Replacing the knock sensors will remove the prompting of P0325, P0330 and expect to find another fault as engine stalling is not always present with knock sensor error codes.
Hope this helps.

04 dodge neon showing P0325 and P0340 codes at same time.

Code 0325 is for a Knock sensor. Code 0340 is for the Cam sensor #1 if this is an engine with 2 heads and it is an indication of a single sensor on single head engines.

So if you do have a multiple hed engine, you may have removed the good sensor and left the bad sensor in the other head.

Remember to wipe the computer memory after installing new parts.

Need to know what dodge codes P0325, P0344 & P0340 mean

0325 knock sensor
0344 cam position sensor intermittent
0340 cam position sensor failure

I would replace the cam position sensor from the codes you provided. The knock sensor
would most likely be related to the sensor failure.

Car jerks on freeway and engine shuts off.

It sounds like your Mass Air Flow Sensor is faulty. These sensors will normal show fault when cruising at highway speeds causing the vehicle to almost stall or stall. Replace the Mass Air Flow Sensor with a known good one and test drive the vehicle. This will most likely repair your concern.
