I m getting po330 on my 2004 RX330 and trying to figure out whats going on because truck is running very smooth with no issues but keep on getting PO330.
Just looking fot ECU pinouts so I can diagnose the error.
Don't go to the ECU, find the knock sensor plug and ohm it out. Also take a hammer to the block while you are on the pins and see if it generates some voltage, don't bang the crap out of it just small pinging hammering. Check both of them.
Only thing I can suggest is to try it. Attached is the diagram I went by.
Thank you, psycle01: I checked the wiring again and you were right . Checked the wiring as per diagram and already resolved the issues. No more check engine light.

Hi!!
Can you let us know what you found and how you fixed the problem.
With engine running (using multimeter)check the reading bewteen PIN 1 and 28 and compare with 2 and 20.
My test showed that knock sensor 2(pin 2 and 20) was showing totally different reading consistantly then Knock sensor 1(pin 1 and 28), even when I knocked on the engine with a hammer (Gently).
Now after confirming that the problem is a BAD knock sensor since reading is not changing even when I knocked on the engine, instead of disassembling half of my engine to replace it, I just cut the wire of pin 2 (RED) and connected it to pin 1 (Black) on ECU side and cut pin 20(green) and connected it to Pin 28 (White) on ECU side. IT's plug E9 in the picture.
No more check engine light with error code PO330.
Please do it at your own risk, I am not responsible if you damage anything while attempting this.

Hi! I am trying to solder my engine wire harness and the file you linked to is helping me a lot. It's engine-controls-3-of-6.pdf. Could you please post the other files in the sequence?
Thank you!

I'm trying to access the ECU behind the glove compartment to get a good view of the cable connections. I am getting a knock sensor code and wanted to check the connection and wiring on the ECU. What else besides the glove compartment do I need to remove?
