I had the dreaded knock sensor code P0325 come up, along with the loss of power etc..
I'd had it happened previously about 10 years ago, so I was familiar with the symptoms. Unfortunately for me I was on a trip and needed to fix it on the road. I didn't have any spare stuff and didn't have the tools available to test or replace anything anyway.
I remembered reading somewhere about bridging Knock sensor 1 and 2 at the ECU. Obviously, this will only work if one KS is still working.
I removed glovebox etc. to access the ECU, I knew where they were located from my previous battles with it...the plain Black wire and the plain White wire, into the middle plug on the ECU. I then shoved a thin wire loop into the back of the terminals/pins...Fixed!
Now that I'm back home, I had to fix it properly. It turns out, the wire was broken about an inch away from the KS 1 connector. Ordered a new connector pigtail, fitted it...all done!
I hope this info helps someone as I have gleaned so much valuable info from this forum.
