P0332 Code - Knock Sensor

[mmeridith]

Gave the Yuk a good cleaning last week and now I'm getting a P0332 Code, Knock Sensor Bank 2... Arrgghh, I knew I should have left it dirty. All of the post I'm finding say this is from water getting into it and causing a short. Will this dry up and go away eventually? Took it to my garage and the grease monkey wants $550.00 to replace both front & rear sensors, seems kind of steep for a $50 part. How hard is to DIY?? Any special tools needed?

Your best be is to replace both knock sensors and buy a new harness for it as well. Some people put silicone around the rubber boot to seal it some more, Only special too required is to remove the fuel lines which you can get at you local parts store. Other than that its it fairly simply procedure and straight forward. Also now that you are removing the manifold it would be a good odea to replace the manifold gaskets as well. Good luck!
