OEM knock sensor test help please
i am really scratching my head reading and re-reading the shop manual on what should be a very simple test proceedure:
here's the manual:
Knock Sensor inspection (on vehicle)
1. connect voltmeter(-) terminal to the MEN terminal of the data link connector.
2. connect the data link connector terminals TEN and GND by using a jumper wire.
3. turn ign switch on.
4. lightly tap on the engine hanger with a hammer.
5. verify voltmeter indicator moves.
6. turn ign switch to off.
i get nothing on the voltmeter.... but doesn't the voltmeter positive lead need to be connected somewhere????
i have gone thru two knock sensors in a short period of time. any ideas?
thanks for any help.
