Dodge Ram 3500 Knock Sensor Parts and Q&A

  • Q: How to Install a Knock Sensor on a 5.7L Engine on Dodge Ram 3500?
    A:
    Before fitting the knock sensor in on the 5.7L engine, completely clear the old material from the hole. After that, add the sensor to the cylinder block. It is important not to use excessive or insufficient tightness for the knock sensor bolts which can harm the sensor and affect the way your engine functions, so always apply the suggested torque. Applying torque to the knock sensor bolt is uncomplicated for an 8 mm bolt. The foam strip helps hold the bolts in place during plant assembly, but do not apply sealant, adhesive or thread locking products to them; these should not touch the sensors either. Following this, you should tighten the mounting bolt to 15 ± 2 ft. lbs. (20 Nm) (176 in.lbs.).
