Where is location of knock sensor for kia spectra 03

The knock sensor is hidden by the intake manifold bracket which is on the firewall side offf the car.To get to it you have to jack the car up and support it.with jack stands .always disconnect the battery when working with electrical peices.The knock sensor will be under the intake manifold bracket which is to the left of the alternator.To remove it remove the bracket, disconnect the plug to the sensor, remove the retaining bolt and then remove the sensor.I hope this helps finding it and replacing it.

Where is the Knock Sensor 1 located

Solution:
1. If you have to pay for a solution here on fixya, why not take it to a mechanic.
2. For the price of a live chat here on fixya for a one time solution you can purchase a complete repair manual and solve the problem yourself. Daah???? No more $20.00 piece mill each time you have a problem with your car.

I hope this eye opener will be a help to others.

I really don't expect to see this one in a post.
