Knock senors!

[TRDownShift]

Im in the middle of building my GTE back up (REALLLLLY need a DD like NOW) and came across one of the knock senors broken off like someone came down on it with a hammer. anyway, I now need one and the junk yards around here only have N/A supras, I know the turbo uses 2 but i only need one, i was wandering if i can just yank the one from the N/A and plug it right in to fill the gap. Thanks in advance for a speedy reply. strapped for cash and time!:aigo:

All 7M knock sensors are the same.

just make sure you get the same type plug. cause there is a knock sensor with a D shaped plug and one that is round.

Oh ok, thank you! as for the supra at the junk yard, it looked the same as mine once i got the IM off BUT! I did find an 87 cressida and even though i think it's a 5M the knock sensor looks the same as mine, like it would plug right up? Am i Right? not sure but we'll see this weekend, I didn't bring a big enough wrench to get the damn thing off but it's alright, looks like that cressida has been there for months and the only thing missing with the radio and the freakin cat LOL i think the sensor will be there wen i go this weekend

I have two brand new ones pm me if you just want to pay the shipping on one. Came with my car I only want one for further use.

You dont have to just get them from supras.....I grabbed some from picknpull from a couple of cressidas, Im thinking even camrys, and toyota trucks were all the same.

I heard that if you wanna test if your know sensor work, you gotta let a warm engine idle, then knock on it with a hammer (no too hard) and if the rpm drops, that mean the ecu saw the knocking right?

No, just use an oscilloscope.

I used two knock sensors out of a late 90's (i think) 4-runner.
They use a different plug, but since I had those plugs as well, and they were in WAY better shape than mine,
I just spliced them in. I've never had a KS code since.
