Well i been reading up on knock sensors and couldn't find the answer to my question. If you have a faulty sensor no conductivity it will throw a cel. If you have a faulty sensor when it's just picking up all vibrations and ticks will it just kill timing and run richer then usual and not throw a cel. or picking up noise from lma's or ticking valve train will that cause the knock to throw a code or simply fool the ecu that there is detonation and do its usual job and cut timing with no cel?
I ask this because i have access to my knock sensors and pulled the out and did a tap test with a meter and seems to be working. But, what do you consider working, after time do this wear out? maybe not as accurate?
